Managing employees includes creating new ones, inviting them, and also deactivating their access.
Anyone tied to your company can view the employee list located at /b2b_platform/employee. In order to make changes, the employee must be an administrator of the given company.
You can filter the list by using the search box, or hide inactive employees, which will hide all employees that have an X in the column "Active".
You can create new employees on the fly while logged in as an company administator, or via the API. The relevant API routes can be found here:

You have three choices:

Sharing the link present in this view will generate a one time use link for someone to self-sign up.

Note that you cannot assign the Administrator role automatically, you will need to manually create the employee for administrators.

Assuming you shop for two companies on the shop, A and B.

You can also access this by navigating to the URL /b2b_platform/employee/assign
On this tab, you can either import employees or export a list of existing ones. In order to get the format correctly, we recommend exporting a CSV first and adapting it from there before re-uploading it.
In order to manage an existing employee, click the magnifier icon on the right.
The next screen allows you to edit all data that you were able to provide during Enter Employee Information Directly, with one addition: You can also modify the preferred customer for the employee.
This setting allows you to either select a customer each time the employee logs in (default) or specify a specific one to always log into first. This is a setting that the employee can freely adjust themselves too.
In order to unlink an employee click the X icon next to the magnifier.
This opens a popup asking you for confirmation. Upon confirmation, the employee will be unlinked from the current company.
I want to disable someone's access, but retain the account in order to be able to view orders at a later time. How do I do that?
Modify the employee data and unset the flag for "Active". This will mark them as an inactive employee.
I don't need the employee anymore on the shop. How can I delete them from the shop?
Employees can only be deleted in the admin interface, you can instead mark them as inactive or unlink them.
Checking this makes the new user an administrator.
