Hi all,
On the Admin settings, in the Security page, there is a box to allow or disallow Proxy Logins.
Security Tab | I don't dare to touch this as I am not sure that when I turn it off, if it can be turned on again.
The reasoning behind this doubt is as follows:
This setting would disallow Brand Admins to use a proxy login.
But Brand Admins can access the Security page as well.
If this setting is reversible, it would not make sense. Because any brand admin could then just go to the Security settings and turn the Proxy Logins back on again.

Hi JoycaV! The "Allow Proxy Logins" setting is reversible - it is best used when you don't want Division Admins logging into accounts on their division. If you have any follow up questions about this functionality, be sure to reach out to our wonderful Support team, as they are best equipped to help!

Thanks Lauren, but for Division Admins there is already on division level the permission setting "allow proxy logins". So I still don't get why the organisation-wide setting would be used.
