1 Introduction
1.1 Objective
This user guide instructs master users in how to create or change users and how to manage the various access rights and contracts. Furthermore, it instructs standard users in how to view their rights and edit personal data.
1.2 Product
The user administration functionality allows master users to manage users and their rights and contracts more quickly and easily. The customer specifies one person (the master user) to manage the Corporate Business Extranet on the customer side. Master users are responsible for managing and assigning authorisations and contracts, including administration rights, to other people (authorised users). They determine the extent to which these users are permitted to use the functions available on the customer Extranet. Administration is carried out electronically using the customer Extranet user administration function.
For further details, see http://www.swisscom.com/solutions/extranet_teilnahmebedingungen-leg0500.pdf
1.3 Basic conditions of use
Please note that only the master user can use the user administration functionality. If users do not have access to all the functions they need, they must consult their company's master user. The master user can grant them the relevant authorisations or contact the Swisscom (Switzerland) Ltd support offices, which are listed on the Corporate Business Extranet login page.

2.2 Structure of the eService
The left-hand area of the eService, which contains the items “Extranet Administration” and “My eServices” is called the navigation area.
The area on the far right, containing the support details form what is known as the “related content”.
Between these, the main content can be seen – this is the main area of the eService.

3 User administration as a master user
When a customer enters the user administration area, the user administration function distinguishes between two different authorisation levels on the customer side. These are “standard users” ( see Section 4 User administration as a user for more on this) and “master users”.
The master user's task is to manage users in the Extranet and act as the primary contact partner for Swisscom with regard to the Extranet and eServices.
When a master user activates user administration, he or she starts on the “users” tab for the company (customer number) in question. From there, the master user can create new users, lock/activate existing users, reset passwords, modify authorisations and contracts and delete users.

3.1 Creating new users
The master user can create any number of users. This is done in four steps.
Step 1 – Create user
Create user: All data that is relevant to the company can be edited under Companies.
A new user can be created under Users using the plus sign.
Enter details: Fill in mandatory fields for the user.
Particular attention should be paid here to ensuring that the user name and e-mail address are unique. Multiple uses of an e-mail address may lead to problems in communicating with the user.
The mobile number is optional. If this is not supplied, the password will be sent by e-mail; otherwise, this will be done by text message.

Once the user has been created, the master user can determine which eServices or which functions for each eService the user is authorised to use.
Clicking Edit under Rights provides the master user with an overview of all the available rights. Using the rights tree, the master user can expand groups and select specific rights.

3.9 Specifying a representative
The master user can edit his or her own data and specify a representative, who is visible to that company's users in the Extranet.
Procedure: Master users can either select their own name in the User overview or in the header. Using Edit details and Edit, it is possible to edit the user data, the comment field and the master user representative. To save the changes, click Save.
Note: No rights are delegated by adding the representative. This definition serves solely for informative purposes. The selected user must therefore be defined as a master user with the relevant rights so that he or she can in fact take on the role of representative.

4 User administration as a user
If users access the user management function, they are taken to their own details, which they can then edit. This includes changing the address, phone number and e-mail address.
Users can also see which rights they have for which eServices or which contracts are assigned to them.
Users cannot assign further authorisations or contracts to themselves. To do this, they must always contact the master user.
