Note

Caution: Changing or removing a reseller’s market segment may cause order or renewal failures on existing subscriptions.

Finally, when you click the Manage Adobe Contact option, a new pop-up window allows you to review and, if needed, update your customer's contact details (email address and phone number). After you click on Send Details, we will automatically share the contact information with Adobe. Adobe will then use this information to resend the Welcome email to the selected customer.
