This topic provides information about the elements in this window in Visma Net, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes.

The user type you have selected determines whether this field can be left blank and what type of account you can select.

If you have selected a contact-related user type in the User type field, you must select a contact account here or add a new contact.
