HOW TO:Sell Shared Mailbox and Resources Mailbox Add-ons in bulk to Resellers and End-Customers

Zohaib Shaikh
MachPanel

Summary

In our latest build  the handling of Shared and Resource mailboxes has been updated and improved. These two resources are now handled via add-ons. We had changed the handling earlier to handle via the service plan but there was issues with resource separation. Resources sold for Shared/Resource Mailboxes would merge with resources of user mailboxes and were problematic and thus we had to change implementation to settle that under the add-ons.

So, if you wish to give your Resellers and End-Customers of Resellers option to create up-to 9999 Shared or Resource mailboxes,  you will need to create 2 add-ons. 1 add-on for Resource Mailbox and Other for Shared Mailbox and then sell them via bulk selling section to desired resellers and customers.

Alternatively you can create these add-ons with your desired minimum values and sell different quantities to desired resellers and customers same as other add-ons.

Increase Resources for Exisitng subscription (Quota Over Usage):

Prepaid resellers are permitted to oversell their resources assigned by providers. The resources oversold are then reported in the Quota Over Usage report, Providers can adjust and charge Resellers accordingly.

To view and manage oversold resources, please follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Home > Service Director > General > Reports.
  2. Select the Usage Report tab.
  3. Click on Quota Over Usage report.

This report will display the allocated, utilized, and remaining resources, along with the subscription name and ID under the Subscriptions tab >> View Detail. This allows you to monitor the resources effectively and ensure that you remain within the agreed quotas.

Furthermore, Prepaid Resellers have the flexibility to create "Customer products/plans" and sell resources to customers according to their requirements. This customization capability enables them to cater to the specific needs of their customers while managing the resources efficiently.
