    • All users must be placed in an organization in your system. To identify the organization, click the Search icon and then Browse to expand the organization structure. 
  4. Click Create once all the necessary fields are filled.
  5. Review all user information in the User Summary screen.

Notes on Usernames and Passwords:

  • Usernames must be unique and contain no spaces, so email addresses are recommended when possible. An email address is necessary for self-service password resets; otherwise, the user will need a manager or administrator's assistance.

  • If the new user does not have an email address, use a combination of their name and company with no spaces as their username. You will also need to set a temporary password for them. The password must be 8 characters, and contain upper and lower-case letters, a number, and a special character. The password cannot contain more than 4 characters from the first name, last name, or username. The user will be able to change the password upon initial login.
