It doesn\u2019t need to be. Let\u2019s break it down step by step.<\/p>\n<h3>Start with roles and permissions<\/h3>\n<p>Before anything else, verify <strong>the roles and permissions<\/strong> your user has for the Partner Center.\u00a0 You must be a global admin to give yourself the additional permissions for MPN Admin and Account Admin.
