The Box 'Admin Console' gives the account administrator full control over the accounts in his Business. From this console, the administrator can establish basic account settings; create, modify, and delete user accounts; and track user actions. Each Business user has his or her own full feature, premium account, with as much storage as the administrator assigns it. Business users have access to the full range of Box services, including collaboration folders, OpenBox services, and guest functionality. Each user account is automatically assigned 3 workgroup sub-users. If you would like this number changed, please contact premium Business support.

Adding a User
To add a new user to your Business account, click on the 'Add New User' button in the upper right of either the 'Home' or the 'Users' tab. Enter the new user's email address (which will become their username), name, password, and storage quota (i.e. the amount of storage you would like to assign him). You may also assign the user access to existing collaboration folders or assign the user as part of a specific group. Click 'Okay', and the user account will be created instantly. The user will automatically be sent an email (to the address provided) with his login information (username, password).

Changing User Information
To change a user's information (name, password, storage quota), click on the 'Actions' drop-down to the right of a user's name in the 'User' tab. Select 'Change user settings'. Enter the user's new information, then click 'Okay'. The user's information is now updated.

Deleting a User
To delete a user from your Business, click on the 'Actions' drop-down to the right of a user's name in the 'User' tab. Select 'Remove user'. A pop-up window will appear asking you to confirm your decision. Click 'Okay', and the user's accounts (as well as any and all files in it) will be deleted. The storage that user had been assigned will now be available for other user (for additional information on storage distribution in Box Business accounts, please see the Business storage help page).

Entering a User's Account
From the administrative console, you can enter any of your users' accounts. To do so, simply choose "Log into this Account" from the 'Actions' menu. This will take you into their account with full access permissions (i.e. you may upload, download, and delete files as well as modify settings). To return to the administrative console, click the 'Return to Enterprise View' link in the orange banner at the top of the page.
