Situation
You need to add or edit general or user details in your GFI Accounts Portal account.
(If you cannot access your GFI Accounts Portal, please try resetting your password following these instructions)
Note: These changes can be made by all tier types (Distributor, Reseller, Enduser) to any user in their own company's account, by users with the Account administrators role. They can also be made to linked, next tier accounts. For example, a Reseller can edit linked Enduser information but not vice versa. See below for more information.
