Manager accounts (MCC): Hiding and unhiding accounts

If your dashboard is cluttered with accounts that you're no longer using, you can hide them so that your manager account pages load faster and show a more relevant view of your client accounts. When you hide an account, you're not unlinking it. Its campaigns will continue running normally.

This article shows you how to hide and unhide accounts.

Instructions

You can hide or unhide accounts from the Accounts page. Hiding accounts will remove them from view in both the navigation panel and the Accounts page. But on the Campaigns page, hidden accounts will be labelled with "(Hidden)" in the Account column. Bear in mind that you can't hide sub-manager accounts.

If you ever want to check which of your accounts are hidden without actually unhiding any hidden accounts, you can choose to show hidden accounts from the navigation panel or Accounts page.
