When you sign in to your Control Account, the Sub-Accounts page is displayed by default.

The following information is provided for sub-account data cards:

New Sign-up Requests
WACM allows partners to create branded sub-account sign-up forms accessible from a unique URL that they can share with their customers. The New Sign-up Requests section details the user information provided in the sub-account sign-up form.
My Control Account
The My Control Account section displays usage and bucket consumption metrics for Control Account and Account Governance users.
Single-Day Date Picker
The Single-Day Date Picker allows Control Account and Governance Account users to select a specific date to view sub-account utilization data from the main Sub-Account tab and on an individual Sub-Account's bucket tab. Governance Account users can access the Single-Day Date Picker on the Control Account tab to view Sub-Account storage per Control Account.
Importing Sub-Accounts into WACM
WACM automatically synchronizes accounts to import all sub-accounts. Sub-accounts and all associated data created through the Wasabi Account Control API will be synchronized into the platform each night.
If you believe your accounts are not syncing correctly from the Wasabi Account Control API, please contact support@wasabi.com.
Searching and Filtering Sub-Accounts
You can search and filter all sub-accounts.
- In the Search box on the Sub-Accounts page, enter the text you want to search. The search takes place as you type.
- To further filter your search, select one or a combination of filters from the Filter By drop-down: Status (Deleted, Denied, On Trial, Paid Account, Password Pending, or Suspended), search a Channel Account, or check the Show Deleted Accounts box.
Exporting Data
To export usage data:
- Click the Export button when it is available (usually in conjunction with a search or filter):
- Select the export file format CSV, JSON, or Excel.
- Click Export.
Best Practices
Trial Accounts
Trial accounts are created for either 30, 60 or 90 days. The allowed WACM user can change the trial period.
When the trial expires, the trial account is automatically converted into a paid account.
- It is recommended that the WACM user deletes a trial account before it has expired, if the data stored during the trial phase is going to be used once the account is a paid account.
- There is no way to avoid this automatic conversion, except by extending the trial up to 90 days or by deleting the sub-account.
Paid Accounts
It is important to always keep in mind the status of the sub-account. This could lead to unexpected costs. If you intend to delete the sub-account, do not leave it as Suspended (see Suspending a Sub-Account). Make sure all of the data is deleted from within the account on the Wasabi Console and then proceed to delete it in WACM.
Security
It is recommended that the Password Reset Required option is selected in order to force the account holder to reset their password upon initial login. (Refer to Resetting a User Password.)
Email Alerts
Emails that contain alerts or warnings will be sent to the Admin account that receives emails (the first Admin account created).
If it is desired for sub-accounts to manage their own password reset, it is recommended that you input a legitimate email when prompted in the sub-account setup and select the option Send password reset to Sub-Account email (see Creating a Sub-Account in the Trail Phase).
