OID How to add the Organisation Contact and Authorised Users

Introduction

This page explains how to add the organisation contact person and authorised users to your organisation in the Organisation Registration system.

1. Adding the Organisation Contact Person

1.1. Access the "Organisation Contact Person" section in the side menu

The Organisation Contact Person screen opens.

1.2. Provide all required information

Information such as First and Last Name, Position in the organisation and professional e-mail have to be provided. All mandatory fields are clearly marked with *.

By default, the check boxes to use the organisation phones and organisation address are not ticked. If those details are the correct ones for the Organisation Contact Person, tick the check boxes. The relevant information will be taken over from the Organisation Data section of the registration form.

If the phone numbers and/or address of the contact person are different from the information provided under Organisation Data, provide the information in the available fields.

1.3. Organisation Contact Person marked complete

The icon in the side menu changes to green once all mandatory information in this section is provided. You can proceed to the next part of the registration: Authorised Users.

2. Adding the first Authorised User

As the person registering the organisation, you are the first Authorised User. You must record your personal information during the registration process.

At this point in the registration process it is not possible to add more authorised users, but the option is available after the registration form is submitted.

2.1. Access the "Authorised Users" section

The Authorised Users screen opens. Your professional email address is already filled in as it is retrieved from your EU Login account. The professional e-mail address cannot be changed.

2.2. Provide all required information

Provide the missing mandatory information. The icon in the side menu changes to green when all required fields are filled in.

There are two ways of recording the details:

If you are also the contact person of the organisation, click on the Copy contact person details button to quickly fill in your information from the Organisation Contact Person section.
Remember: You cannot replace your own professional email, otherwise you would lose access to the organisation. If you used a different email in the Contact Person section, that email does not allow you to sign in as an authorised user.
If you are not the contact person, fill in your details manually
1. If your phone numbers and/or address are the same as those provided under Organisation Data section, tick the Use organisation phones? and Use organisation address? check-boxes. Otherwise, fill in details in the available fields.

In our example below, the contact person is the same as the authorised user, but the professional email addresses are different.

3. Adding additional Authorised Users, if applicable

Adding additional authorised users is only possible once the organisation is registered in the Organisation Registration system. This can be done either immediately after registration or at any later time when updating existing organisation details.

Note: Any authorised user can add a other authorised users.

Important

All Authorised Users must have an EU Login account to access the organisation information. Authorised users without an EU Login account will receive an email invitation to create their EU Login account when they are added to the organisation. The invitation is send to the email address recorded in the Organisation Registration system for this organisation and this email must be used when creating their EU Login account.

3.1. Access the "Authorised Users" section and click the "Add new" button

Fill in the information manually.
1. If the authorised user's phone numbers and/or address are the same as those provided under Organisation Data section, tick the Use organisation phones? and Use organisation address? check-boxes. Otherwise, fill in details in the available fields.

In our example below, we have used the Copy contact person details button.

Remember
