From here, manage membership activity such as viewing and paying open invoices, see event registrations, and update individual and/or company contact information as needed.  

Access Levels:   Everyone that logs in can see thier membership status, their transactions, event history, order history, and their own personal profile information.  You may also see information about your company, depending on your access level.

They also can grant Management Access for other staff.  If your company name needs to be updated, please Contact Us for assistance.
