Administrator
The administrator is above the System Manager and has all the rights and permissions for an ActiveBooks Account.
A System Manager also has permissions to most items in the system, but the Administrator has unrestricted access.
If your ActiveBooks account is cloud-hosted with us, then you won't be able to access your ActiveBooks account as an Administrator.
For cloud-hosted account, upgrades are managed from the backend. We reserve admin login credentials with us so that we can upgrade all the customer's ActiveBooks accounts from the backend.
Since on a single server, we may host many customer's ActiveBooks accounts, as a security measure, we cannot share the credentials for administrator account with any cloud-hosted user. (an exception would be if you purchase a large number of users and your account is exclusively hosted on one server).
For self-hosted on-premises accounts, the admin credentials are with the account user.
