EQC: Distributor Setup Users

Create users with limited or full access to the options in Distributor Setup. Users access Distributor Setup using their own email address and a unique password. The email/password combination must not match any enhanced user in EQC.

This login combination can be used if browser session times out and you are asked to log back in. Browser session will time out after no activity for 30 minutes. This could prevent you from losing unsaved worked if you stepped away for 30 minutes from unsaved editing software that was left idle.

Solution is to enter your Username and Password to reactivate the software within the browser to allow a save. Any mouse clicks or save will re-start the clock. This is key for working in Q-design templates.

  • No Access – access is not granted to the selected option. The option is suppressed from displaying for the user.
