Introduction

Each Dexibit account contains locations and users.

Locations are a geographic locations where visits occur. In the case of a simple museum, an account will only have a single locations. Data coming into Dexibit is attributed to a location. More complex accounts might have multiple locations; each location has its own separate data.

Users are users of the Dexibit application. Users are able to access data from all locations within an account.

Users can be one of two roles:

User: a user with restricted functionality. They are not able to edit account details, location details and the details of other users.

Administrator: a user with full functionality. They are able to access account details, location details and the details of other users, including - if available - those users and locations in sub-accounts.

Accounts

For those on Enterprise plan, an account may have sub-accounts. Data can then be aggregated at the parent account level.
