Creating a Business Account

When creating a new business account, the user must first create a user account. Once the user account is created, then the user can create a new business account.

The user and business account model is used to provide flexibility to NocTel users. With user accounts, multiple users can be invited to join a business account and given different access levels.  This allows the account administrator control over what other users can change and interact with. Also, a user can have access to multiple business accounts, while only having to worry about one way to access them. This is useful for users that have multiple businesses, offices or locations that are spread across different NocTel accounts.
