Before you turn off Designated Administration, know that if you have Administrators set at the Organization or Department level (anything below the Institution level), all those administrators retain their lower-level access. They are not automatically given Institution-level access.
However, while Designated Administration is off, you cannot change the access level for any of these admins. The Administrators tab is no longer available.
If your intent is to return all administrators to institution-level admins, check the box for all admins at the Institution level, then turn off Designated Administration. This is shown in the figure below and described in the procedure below.
To establish Designated Admin(s) as an institution-level Administrator(s) and turn Designated Administration off
- Log in to EchoVideo as an administrator.
- Click the Settings icon in the upper-right corner of the screen.
-
From the Settings menu, select Institution Settings.
General settings appears and Basic Info is selected by default.
- Click Administrator.
- Enter a check into the box for all Admins you want to give Institution-level Administrator rights to. Use the Search box to find administrators as necessary.
- Navigate to Roles and Permissions > Administrators and turn the main Designated Administration toggle off.
Now, those Admins who are checked at the institution-level will have institution-level administrative access. For more details on what that means, see User Roles, Capabilities, and Limitations.
