Identify External and Trusted Organizations

Cor Winkler Prins

OrganizationThe ‘All Organizations’ view lists internal, external and trusted organizations.  This has created a need to easily distinguish between these different types of organizations.

When a specialist opens an organization record of a supplier or external customer, this record is now clearly marked as ‘External’ when that organization record is registered in the 4me account that the specialist is working in, or in this account’s directory account.

An organization is labeled as ‘Trusted’ when it is registered in a trusted 4me account.

  • InternalAn internal organization is an organization that has a parent-child path to the organization that is linked directly to the 4me account in which it is registered. To find out which organization is linked directly to a 4me account, go to the Settings console in this account and open the section ‘Account Overview’.
  • ExternalAn organization is considered external when it does not have a path of parent-child relations to the organization that is linked directly to the 4me account in which it is registered.
  • TrustedA trusted organization is either an internal or external organization that is opened in a 4me account that has a trust relation with the account in which the organization is registered, or with a support domain account of the account in which the organization is registered.
