In Momentum AMS, Users are the people who can log into the system, while Agents are records used for commission tracking, assigning producers/CSRs, and reporting purposes.
You can have unlimited Agents, but the number of Users is limited by your subscription.
If you attempt to add a User without having an available slot in your subscription, the system will block the creation. You can still create an Agent in that case, but they will not be able to log into the system.
Key Distinctions – Agents vs. Users
Agents | Users |
---|---|
Unlimited number allowed | Limited by subscription |
Used for commission tracking, producer/CSR assignments, and reporting | Required for login access to Momentum AMS |
No login credentials | Have login credentials |
Can be linked to a User record but can also exist independently | May also be set up as an Agent for production tracking |
Important: If you need to add a User but have no available slots, go to Subscription and Payments (from the hover menu under your name) to increase your subscription before creating the User.
