Learn how to manage your provider accounts to add, edit, and delete master and asset accounts.
Master accounts
are super accounts that contain a set of asset accounts. Master accounts include data such as the account name, the associated provider, account status, account credentials, and associated asset accounts. Master accounts enable users to create account subsets for quick and easy access.
Asset accounts
may stand alone, or each may be associated with one, and only one, master account. Asset accounts include data such as the asset account name and number, the associated master account, account status, account credentials, and associated provider. Asset accounts represent inventory items such as provider services, components (for example, application or virtual device), and other data.
By managing provider accounts, users can view, edit, add, and delete data and associations from master and asset accounts. Viewing asset accounts also provides users with an option to test the connection with the provider to ensure it is functioning properly.
Validation checks
In addition to working with master and asset accounts, System and Team Setup Admins can view failed validations. Validation tests are set up using APIs.
Enterprise Marketplace is set up to perform validation checks in many different scenarios. Failed validations occur, for example, when setting up a new master account and not filling in a required field. In the case of this example, a required field was not populated with data, so the validation test returned an error. When this occurs, System and Team Setup Admins can view the returned validation errors.
When failed validations display, choose either
Save
or
Cancel
.
If you click
Save
to accept and continue, a message displays the success or failure of your work.
If you click
Cancel
to return to the previous screen to review validations, on the previous page, you can click
View
underneath
Last Validation Results
. The
Validation Results
window displays the validation errors for you to review.
