Create an administrator

You can create an administrator by assigning an administrator role to a user account or to a user group. The user group can be a directory-linked group or a local group. You can add one role to a user and one role to each group that they belong to, but
BlackBerry UEM
 assigns only one role to the user.
When a role is assigned to a user account or to a user group,
UEM
 sends administrators an email with their username and a link to the management console.
UEM
 also sends administrators a separate email with their password for the management console. If an administrator does not have an account password,
UEM
 generates a temporary password and sends it to the administrator.
