For assistance with creating the CSV, please select the "Help" link to the right of the "How to Create a CSV" file on Step 1. Please Note: All Login ID(s) uploaded in the CSV file will have the same Resp Org ID, Company Name, Address information and Permissions. If the file was uploaded successfully, the new Login IDs will be listed below the "Add" and "Delete" buttons. If any modifications need to be made, these buttons can be used accordingly. On Step 1, please verify the following User Information:
- Company Name: This field is automatically selected based upon the Resp Org ID entered in the uploaded CSV file. The provided Resp Org ID will also pre-populate the following fields and can be modified as needed for the selected user(s):

- Address 2: This is the address 2 for your company’s address.
- City: This is the city for your company’s address.

Please acknowledge that "I understand that an additional tariff fee will be applied for the creation or the reactivation of each Login ID" by placing a check box in the box to the left of this field on Step 2 (Website Permissions) of the User Profile. This acknowledgement is mandatory for a new or a reactivation of a User Profile if the “Billable” checkbox has been selected. If this option is left unchecked, then no Billable changes are applied to the User Profile. |
In Step 3 of the User Profile Request, please select the Application Access permissions for Somos’ Main Applications and/or Secondary Applications as needed. Once the Application Access permissions have been selected, please select the "Continue" button to proceed with Step 4 (Environment Permissions) of this request.
