Creating Admin Accounts in WHMCS

We recommend creating an Admin account for all DoOO Admins. That way if something isn’t working properly, you can check the WHMCS user logs as a form of troubleshooting, figure out who last made changes to a given account, and then follow up with them about any steps taken.

The new Version 8 update of WHMCS recently got a new look and feel, which means that some settings/functions in the dashboard have moved. All new Domain of One’s Own schools will receive this newer version of WHMCS by default. If you've had DoOO for a couple of years, there's a chance you may still be version 7 (also documented below).

WHMCS Version 8

1. To create a new admin account in WHMCS, log into your WHMCS Dashboard, and hover your mouse over the wrench icon on the top right of the screen:

4. It’s important to note that the Administrator Role should be set to Full Administrator and the user should be given a user that coincides with their name.
