After July 2021, the 2.3.x release line will no longer receive quality updates, or user guide updates. PHP 7.3 reaches end of support in December 2021 and Adobe Commerce 2.3.x reaches end of support in September 2022. We strongly recommend planning your upgrade now to Adobe Commerce 2.4.x to help maintain PCI compliance.

      This clears the form and the required First Name and Last Name fields are highlighted.

    • Enter the Email address of the new company administrator.

      If the system doesn’t find the email address in the database, you are prompted to confirm that you want to replace the company administrator.

      • If a user account doesn’t exist for the new company administrator, the system creates a new account of the Company Admin type.

      • If the user account already exists in the system, it is moved to the company administrator position in the company hierarchy.

    • Enter the First Name and Last Name, as well as any other information as applicable for the new company administrator.

  4. When complete, click Save.

    The individual account of the former company administrator remains in the system as an active individual user account in the company hierarchy, assigned to the default user role.

    The system sends email notification of the change to the new and former company administrators.
