Creating the customer account
After payment has been taken from the customer, you should receive a ticket under the Provisioning department. This is your cue to create the customer account on the DTC Control Panel.
- Go to the Customer Management button at the top and select New customer:
- Fill in as many details as you can on this page based on the customer's WHMCS profile and click save. You can ignore the Quota and Allowed data transfer boxes at the bottom.
- Go to the Users Administration button at the top and select New virtual admin:
- Add the login name using something obvious from their company name or hostname if possible. If this is not, use their firstname followed immediately by their surname unless they request a specific username. Add a digit at the end if there are any conflicts.
- Set a password using the password provided in their WHMCS order if possible. DTC only allows alphanumerics, so if their WHMCS password includes special characters, generate one using the cog symbol to the right of the password box and replace the password recorded in WHMCS.
