13.5    Add an SSO (Single Sign On) User

When adding an SSO user, you must specify the:

·      User is an external user

·      Authentication URL

 

Note: You can only add this type of user if your system is configured for SSO users. (See Configure SSO for more information.)

To add an SSO user:

1.       Access the Users page. (See View Users for guidance.)

2.      Click the Add User button.

3.       In the Authentication Information section, do the following:

·       Enter the User Name.

·       Check the Active and Allow Login check boxes.

·       Select the Primary Organization from the drop-down list. (You can assign the user to more organizations. However, after selecting the organization in this field, it will remain the primary organization for the user until it is changed again via the Edit User dialog. See Edit a User for instructions.)

o      If you select a primary organization that does not support SSO, the “Is External” check box is unchecked and disabled and the following warning message displays.

o      If you select a primary organization that does support SSO, but no Authentication URL options are available, you receive the following error message when attempting to select the Authentication URL

·          In the Authentication Section, click the Is External User check box and select the Authentication URL from the drop-down list.

4.      Enter the remaining user information and click on the Submit button. (See Add a User for guidance.)
