Creating Community Portal accounts in a batch

You can create many Community Portal accounts at once by using batch files.

To create several Community Portal accounts:

  1. Create a text file where each line holds a community ID and password separated by a comma. For example
    23, p4ssw0rd01

    24, apple123

    78, qwertyuiop5

  2. If a community member should have a joint portal account, add a join flag (J) to the line containing their ID. For example:

    23, p4ssw0rd01

    24, apple123, J

    78, qwertyuiop5

  3. In Synergetic select Module >Community Maintenance.

    The Constits tab of the Community Maintenance window is displayed.

  4. Select the Other tab.

    The Other tab of the Community Maintenance window is displayed.

    Community Maintenance - Other tab

  5. Click Batch button.

    The Open File window is displayed.

  6. Select the text file you created.
  7. Click Start button.

    The passwords are encrypted into the database.

    Note: For security reasons it is recommended you delete the text file after completing these steps and notifying the community members of their new passwords.
