Manage Employees
Learn how to enable or disable automatic employee registration, and how to add or remove customers on a company's employee list.
Employees are users and admins who are affiliated with a specific company. Employees can be manually added to companies, or Service Desk can automatically sort new customers into the appropriate companies using their email domains. Employees can only be assigned to one company at a time.
Employees can be added or removed from a company in either of the following ways: enable or disable automatic employee registration to have new customers sorted into the appropriate company (via their email domains, or manually assign/unassign new and existing customers to specific companies. See Manage Companies for more information.
Enable automatic employee registration
This feature is available to account administrators only.
When automatic employee registration is enabled, Service Desk checks each new customer added to the account to see if their email address uses the company's accepted domain (which is specified during set up). All customers whose email addresses use the specified domain are then automatically added to that company's employees list (in addition to being added as customers). Customers can be marked as employees of up to 1 company.
- First, ensure that self registration for the Customer Portal has been enabled for the company.
- Next, go to Configure > Companies > [select company] > Self Registration tab.
- Under "Accepted Domains for Employee Registration," enter all accepted domains (e.g., "logmein.com"). Any new customers who self-register using an email address within the accepted domains will automatically be added as employees of that company.
- Under "Accepted Domains for Employee Registration," enter all accepted domains (e.g., "logmein.com"). Any new customers who self-register using an email address within the accepted domains will automatically be added as employees of that company.
Note: These accepted domains are also listed under the Customer Access settings. When domains are added or removed in either location, they are automatically synced in the other.
- Click Save when finished.
