To register for the PTC Community,, you may register as a Partner, as an Education PTC account holder, a Basic User, or as a New Customer with your PTC Customer Credentials (Customer #,SCN (Service Contract Number), SON (Sales Order Number) and Customer Site Number. The eSupport Knowledge article CS287536 provides information on how to find your customer credentials.
Note: PTC Employees always login with their SSO credentials username and single sign on password set by PTC. (i.e. jsmith without our domain -@ptc).
Most users don't have access to their SCN, SON, or site number without consulting their system administrator.
