What it does

The admin type used when an admin row does not name one. It picks the prefix from the Prefix by admin type table. The list offers only the types that table defines.

When set

When set: new admin names for rows without an admin type use that type's prefix, and the naming check before commit expects that prefix.

When blank or default

At the default: internal-adminuser (no prefix).

Risk and how to reverse it

Existing accounts are not renamed. Rows without an admin type may start showing naming warnings if their names were built with another prefix. Reversible: pick the old type again.

Requires

SuperAdmin in PIM Manager. Free (Community). Must be a type defined in Prefix by admin type.

Recommended

Keep internal-adminuser and set the admin type explicitly on consultant and guest rows.
