User administration

Supplier Portal contains its own user management - users are created and maintained independently from the ERP systems connected to the portal.

When creating and maintaining users, you should be familiar with the basic concepts that are utilized by the portal. For details about the administration of users, see the following topics.

• Create users

  Administrators can manually create individual and Single Sign-On (SSO) users.

• Upload users

  Instead of creating users one by one, existing user records can be uploaded.

• Approve self-registration workflows

  Registration exceptions that occur when supplier users register themselves in the portal need to be handled by an administrator.

• Lock and unlock user accounts

  If users should be prevented from logging in to the portal, their accounts can be locked, in which case the accounts need to be manually unlocked again.

• Create supplier users

  Supplier users can be invited to use the portal.
