Domain Administration

TL;DR: A Domain is a management container that groups multiple Tenants (organizations) together, allowing shared settings and centralized administration. Think of it as an umbrella structure where large organizations can manage multiple business units. Only System Administrators with the Domain Administrator role can manage domains.

What is a Domain?​

A Domain in the Breeze solution is a high-level organizational structure that acts as a container for managing multiple Tenants (organizations or business units) and their settings. Think of it as a "system domain" - not to be confused with a website domain name (URL).

Key Concepts​

  • A Domain serves as an administrative umbrella that groups related Tenants together
  • Every Tenant in Breeze must belong to a Domain
  • Domains are particularly valuable for:
    • Large corporations managing multiple business units
    • Print service providers handling multiple customer organizations
    • Organizations requiring segregated management of different departments or divisions

Common Use Cases​

  1. Corporate Environment: A large corporation might set up a Domain to manage multiple subsidiary companies or departments, each as separate Tenants
  2. Print Service Provider: A print center might use a Domain to organize different customer organizations they serve
  3. Multi-Site Operations: Organizations with multiple locations or production sites can use Domains to maintain consistent settings and configurations across their operation

Domain Features​

  • Centralized administration of multiple Tenants
  • Shared configuration settings across related Tenants
  • Customizable branding and communication settings
  • Standardized product offerings and service configurations
  • Enabling / Disabling features per domain

Domain Administration Access​

Domain management requires specific administrative privileges:

  • Users must have the System Administrator role
  • Additionally, they need the Domain Administrator task role
  • These combined roles ensure secure and controlled management of domain-wide settings and configurations

Only users with both these roles can perform domain-level operations such as:

  • Creating and configuring new domains
  • Managing domain-wide settings
  • Configuring domain-specific features and integrations
