To allow partner users with the Delegated External User Administrator permission to manage other members, add the Members related list to Accounts page layout.
Note To simplify the member creation process, configure a light user creation form for the
delegated administrator to use. Go to Setup | Object Manager | User | Member Page Layouts to customize which fields are included on the Member page. You can remove
Language and Locale Settings and Chatter from the form. Values for removed fields default to
the settings of the delegated administrator. If your delegated admin is entering values
other than their own in the Locale and Language and Chatter settings, leave them on the
form.
