Create a division
When creating a division, you determine what information the division can access. You have total visibility and control over the users, orders, settings, and activity of your account's divisions
Also, divisions can share account funds, or each division can have its own funds to pay for its certificates. To enable separate funds for your divisions, go to Finances > Settings.
Create a division
In CertCentral, in the left menu, go to Account > Divisions.
On the Divisions page, select Create division.
On the New Division page, do the following as needed:
Name: Enter the division name.
Description (optional): Enter a brief description that provides information about the division.
Send request renewal notifications to (optional): Enter the email addresses for those you want to receive certificate renewal notifications for this division (comma separated: email-one, email-two, email-three).
Note: The email addresses included in your account-wide notifications and certificate renewal settings also receive all account renewal notifications. You don't need to add those same addresses here as well. See Account-wide notifications and Configure renewal notifications.
Users restricted to this division (optional): Select the users you want to restrict to the division.
You can assign users to multiple divisions. Those not assigned to a division can access all divisions.
When you've created the division, you can edit the division to add or remove users. You can also add users to a division from the user details page. Go to Account > Users and select the user.
Auto-Renewal User (optional): To prevent auto-renewal interruptions, set a default user for the division's auto-renewal orders. This user replaces the original requester on all division auto-renewal certificate orders, helping prevent auto-renewal interruptions. Learn more about automatic certificate renewals.
Use the first "Certificates can be ordered for" option to control which organizations the division can order certificates for:
All organizations: Allow the division to request certificates for all organizations. The division can order certificates for all CertCentral organizations.
Specific organizations: Restrict the division to specific organizations. Then, select the organizations for which the division can order certificates. The division can order certificates for the selected organizations.
Use the second "Certificates can be ordered for" option to control which domains the division can order certificates for:
All domains: Allow the division to request certificates for all domains. The division can order certificates for all CertCentral domains.
Specific domains: Restrict the division to specific domains. Then, enter the domains for which the division can order certificates. The division can order certificates for those domains.
Note: When you add a domain, you automatically include its subdomains. If you add example.com, the division can also order certificates for sub.example.com and mail.exampe.com.
To create the division, select Save division.
What's next
The new division appears on the Divisions page. Return here to update its details (such as which domains the division can order certificates for). When adding users to your account, you can assign them to the division. On the Orders and Request pages, you can filter the certificates and requests for that division.
