Adding a tenant and giving an admin access to it
Admins only see the tenants their role includes. A new tenant is not added to existing roles automatically (only Superadmin roles see every tenant), so after creating a tenant you give access to it through a role, then assign that role to the admins who need it.
1. Open the tenant list
Go to Global settings → Tenants and click Add tenant.

2. Create the tenant
Enter the tenant name and a unique code (it can't be changed later), choose the currency and timezone, switch the tenant to Active, and click Add tenant.

3. The new tenant is ready
Demo - Retail EU now appears in the tenant list.

4. Existing roles don't include the new tenant
Open an existing role, here Retail Manager, with Edit: its Add tenant field still lists only the tenants it had before. Admins with this role won't see Demo - Retail EU until it's added to a role they have.

5. Duplicate a role
To give the same permissions for the new tenant, duplicate an existing role: in Global settings → Roles, open the role's menu and choose Duplicate role. (Or click Add role to start from scratch.)

6. Name the new role
The duplicate starts with the original role's permissions and tenants. Give it a name.

7. Add the new tenant to the role
In Add tenant, select Demo - Retail EU alongside the tenants the role already covers (remove any it shouldn't), then click Add role.

8. The role is ready
Retail EU Manager is listed with the other roles.

9. Assign the role to an admin
Go to Global settings → Admins and click Add admin (or edit an existing admin). Fill in their details and, in Role, select Retail EU Manager.

10. Activate the admin
Under Admin status, switch the admin to Active, then click Add admin.

11. The admin now has access
Alex Morgan can now sign in and switch to Demo - Retail EU.
