1. INTRODUCTION.
The purpose of this Master Administrator application guideline is to show, how to easily register and apply for a
BMW GROUP PARTNER PORTAL Master Administrator account.
The prerequisite is that your company already has an official BMW supplier number available.
An active BMW GROUP PARTNER PORTAL account gives you access to useful information and applications ensuring
smooth collaboration. Before getting access to the BMW GROUP PARTNER PORTAL and adding new users, your
company needs to register a Master Administrator.
The Master Administrator is responsible for the administration of the users associated to the company’s supplier
number(s), which includes the approval of registrations, the assignment of roles or the appointment of other
administrators.
How to change a Master Administrator, for instance in case of changed responsibilities, is also covered in this
guideline as well as some other useful tricks to quickly get started.
