My account

An account is an entity within OpenX that 'owns' various other entities, such as campaigns, banners, websites, zones, and even other accounts. OpenX has four types of account:

  • Administrator
  • Manager
  • Advertiser
  • Website

These account types have the following permissions:

Preference Settings Advertiser Website Manager Administrator
user preferences change name, email address or password x x x x
account preferences manage banner/email report/tracker/time zone & UI settings Limited Limited x x
global settings manage global settings for banners, conversion tracking, database, debug logging, email, geo-targeting, maintenance, synchronization and UI - - - x
maintenance settings check maintenance is running, check banner cache, recalculate priority, move images from database to server and synchronize delivery limitations - - - x

x = permission allowed / - = permission denied

An account can have one or more users linked to it, and a user can be linked to one or more accounts.

In the My Account tab you can view the account settings and user log for your current role. You can only view the account settings for the role you are currently logged in as, regardless of how many roles you have.
