Yes, the affiliation to a legal entity is required. emGORA workspace is a B2B ecosystem, users without affiliation can view content and offerings but cannot interact, share, or consume on ews.
Legal entity admins can affiliate ews user accounts by adding them to the legal entity account.
Log in to your admin account and start navigating to “Account” in the main menu and clicking on “Settings”.
A new sub-menu will appear with “My Profile”, “My Legal Entity”, and “My Account”. Now click on “My Legal Entity” and hit the button “Manage”.
Below the non-public information, hit the button “Find Users” and enter the full username. You are only able to add users without existing affiliation.
Make sure you got the right one, if you only enter a piece of the username or make a spelling mistake, you won’t find the user you are looking for (user's privacy protection).
If the user you would like to add is already affiliated with a legal entity, you will receive the error message “The User with the username [username] already has an affiliation”.
The affiliation with the previous legal entity must be terminated by its admins before the user can be assigned to a new legal entity.
You have two options:
The first option is to request the affiliation to an existing legal entity. To find your legal entity, log in to emGORA workspace and go to “Account” in the main menu and click on “Settings”. A new sub-menu will appear with “My Profile”, “My Legal Entity”, and “My Account”. Click on “My Legal Entity” and on the legal entity page, hit “Find Legal Entity”.
You will be forwarded and on the new page, you are asked to provide the name of the legal entity you are looking for. Even a few letters/fractions of the legal entity name can be used to find it. Hit “Find” and pick the legal entity you want to be affiliated with – you will see an overview on the legal entity and its members. If it is the one you are looking for, click on the button “Send Affiliation Request” and the admins of the legal entity will be notified on the new affiliation request.
The second option is to be added to an existing legal entity by the admins of it. Please get in touch with the responsible person in your company and request to get affiliated to the legal entity. The legal entity admin will require your username to find you on ews. (If you do not know how, please move to the related Q&A "How can I add users to my legal entity?").
