User ID Maintenance - Fields

 

User ID Maintenance

IT User ID

Enter the user ID of the customer to whom you will provide access to your Web site, or click the Lookup button to list all user IDs. The user ID must be unique system-wide.

 

Password

Type a password containing a minimum of 6 characters but no more than 24 characters. The password is case-sensitive. This is a required field. For security purposes, only the user should know the password. A user's password can be changed from the Internet by that user. When a user submits a password change over the Internet, this field defaults to the new password after the change is updated.

 

Confirm Password

Retype the user password to confirm it.

 

Type

Select the type of customer associated with this user ID.

This field is available only for .store customers. For .order customers, this field displays .order and can only be viewed.

 

Number

Enter the customer number to which the user ID is assigned. You can start typing a customer name to locate a record. As you type, a list of records matching your entry appears. You can then select a record from the list, and the customer number will appear in the field.

Only one customer can be entered per user ID. A customer can be assigned to one .store user ID or multiple .order user IDs. This field is available only for new .order customers; changes cannot be made to the customer number for an existing user ID.

If you enter a number for a customer that is not Internet-enabled, a message appears warning you the customer is not IT enabled. You must select the Internet Enabled check box in Customer Maintenance before creating a user ID for the customer.

Note If a customer status is set to Inactive in Customer Maintenance, a message appears warning you that the selected customer is inactive and cannot be used. You must change the customer status to Active or Temporary.

 

Contact

If a customer is also set up as a contact in Customer Contact Maintenance, enter the appropriate contact code in the Contact field. Click the Lookup button to list all contacts. The corresponding information appears in the name and address fields and can be modified. When a value is entered in this field, the customer and contact records will be linked. If a .order user ID is linked to a contact code, both records are maintained. For .store customers, the customer address fields in this window are linked to the user ID record. This field is available only for .order customers.

Click the field hyperlink to launch this field's associated maintenance task. If a value is entered in this field, the associated data is displayed in the maintenance window. The maintenance task can be accessed only with the appropriate security setup.
