Following Best Practices for Your ERP.net ID Account
Use your global ERP.net ID account consistently to support smoother sign-in, clearer account identification and management, and better access continuity across supported ERP.net apps and services.
Overview
Good account practices help keep your ERP.net ID account clear, reliable, and ready to use globally across the ERP.net ecosystem.
They are especially important when you create and activate your account, start using it across supported apps and services, and coordinate access to ERP.net instances.
This guide explains what matters when creating and managing your ERP.net ID account and which practices help you use it securely and consistently.
Best Practices for ERP.net ID Account Management
1. Choose the Right Email Address
Before creating your ERP.net ID account, choose your email address carefully.
Note
We recommend using your official individual email address within your organization.
Your email address helps identify your account across ERP.net services.
Use an inbox you can access and manage. This helps you receive confirmation messages, access notifications, and account-related communication.
Your ERP.net ID account is intended to represent you personally, so make sure to use an email address that clearly belongs to you as an individual user.
2. Complete Your Profile Information
The Profile tab contains optional fields, such as:
- Phone number
- Default language
- Company
- Registration message
Although these fields are optional, we strongly recommend filling them in.
Profile information can help administrators, support teams, and service owners understand your account context when access, communication, or support is needed.
The Company field is especially useful when your account needs to be associated with a specific organization.
Use the Registration message field when extra context is useful, such as the organization, service, or access context related to your registration.
3. Confirm Your Email Address Promptly
Confirm your email address promptly after registration so your account becomes active without delay.
Email confirmation activates your ERP.net ID account and verifies that your email address can be used for account-related communication.
If you do not see the confirmation email:
- check your spam or junk folder;
- confirm that the email address you entered is correct;
- request a new confirmation email from the ERP.net ID confirmation screen.
4. Keep Individual Accounts Personal
Each ERP.net ID account should belong to the person it represents.
Personal accounts support:
- clear ownership;
- reliable access coordination;
- accurate communication.
Since employee access to the ERP.net ecosystem is personal and user-specific, each person should use their own ERP.net ID account.
5. Protect Your Sign-In Credentials
Keep your ERP.net ID credentials private.
Use a strong, unique password.
Do not:
- reuse passwords from other services;
- share your sign-in details with another person.
Store your credentials securely and update them promptly if you suspect they may have been exposed.
6. Use One ERP.net ID Account Consistently
Your ERP.net ID account is your global account for personal access across supported ERP.net apps and services.
After you create your ERP.net ID account, use the same account whenever you sign in to an app or service that supports ERP.net ID. Avoid creating additional accounts for other ERP.net ID-compatible apps or services.
Note
Always use the same ERP.net ID account where ERP.net ID sign-in is supported.
This keeps your sign-in, email address, and profile information aligned across supported apps, services, and enabled ERP.net instances.
If you accidentally create more than one ERP.net ID account, coordinate with your administrator, support contact, or service owner to determine which account you should continue using.
7. Coordinate ERP.net Instance Access When Needed
An active ERP.net ID account gives you a sign-in identity, while each ERP.net app, service, or instance controls access according to its own settings, roles, and permission rules.
If you need access to a specific ERP.net instance, your organization may need to enable ERP.net ID login and assign the required roles and permissions to your account.
Contact your ERP.net administrator or responsible service owner if you:
- can sign in with ERP.net ID but cannot access the needed ERP.net instance;
- need additional permissions and roles;
- need help with connecting your account to a specific organization, service, or business context.
Note
A successful sign-in confirms your identity. Permissions to view or change business data depend on the relevant ERP.net app, service, instance, and assigned access rights.
