Allocate meeting minutes to cost centers



When you import users to Acrobat Connect Pro, you can associate each user with a cost center. If users are associated with cost centers, you can enable cost center reporting to determine how much each cost center is using Acrobat Connect Pro.

The easiest way to associate users with cost centers is when you import users in a CSV file or synchronize with an LDAP directory service. If you don’t use either of these methods, you can also associate a user with a cost center manually.

If cost center reporting is disabled, meetings are not tracked for reporting purposes. If users are not assigned to cost centers and meetings are billed per attendee, Acrobat Connect Pro does not track data for those users.
