Managing Subscriber Accounts

Subscriber accounts are for individuals who buy content from the Vending Manager. Subscriber accounts include the licenses for content that the subscriber downloaded.

The Vending Manager assigns subscriber roles, which determine the type of content that is available to subscribers.

Each Subscriber account is associated with one or more Subscriber plans. Before you create a Subscriber account, you might want to ensure that an appropriate Subscriber plan exists for you to assign to the account. If not, you can assign accounts to the default Subscriber plan and edit the account later. See “Managing Subscriber Plans” on page 216 for more information.

You can perform each of the following functions on any of the account views.

■Search for an account by entering a string in the search box at the top of the view, specifying a column, and clicking Submit.

■Display items beginning with a particular letter at the top of the list by clicking the letter in the alphabet list in the browse bar. The browse bar displays the name of the column used for display.

■Sort the account list by clicking on any column title.
