Performing User Account Operations

In addition to the user name, which is the unique user identifier, users can be identified by their accounts (also known as account ID). A user can have multiple accounts. To define an account for the user, an account type has to be first configured for the organization to which the user belongs.

An account type provides additional context about the usage of the account. An account type can have only one account ID. If you want to assign multiple account IDs for a user, then you need to first configure the account type for each account ID that you plan to create for the user.

This section covers the following steps related to user account operations:

Note: Accounts are dependent on user name and account type. Before adding user accounts, you must ensure that the user has already been created in the system, as discussed in "Performing User Operations", and that the account type has been defined for the organization to which the user belongs, as discussed in "Managing Additional User Configurations".
