Administration of Support- and Basic-Accounts incomplete

Administration of Support- and Basic-Accounts incomplete

For Customer Community (https://community.ptc.com ) and eSupport Portal (https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/portal/) there exist no possibility to create an overview about ALL existing Accounts in relation to ones company.

There exist an application "Account Management" (URL: https://support.ptc.com/appserver/common/account/secure/wamMultiEdit.jsp, which can be accessed via "My Account  =>  Tab "eSupport Settings"  =>  Tool "Manage employee privileges"), in which I can specify dedicated rigths within eSupport Portal, OR decrease an Support Account to a Basic Account.

 

Regarding Basic Account I have no possibility:

  • to search for them
  • to set one to inactive
  • (..)

or in others words:  they are in a black hole for me as customer's Online Supervisor.

 

 

Following our company's Compliance rules this is not acceptable.

We have rules how to work with and inside of Social and/or other Communities.

We need to have a possibility to control all accounts (no matter which type) with relation to our company, no matter whether:

  • by usage of Customer Number
  • by usage of Service Contract Number
  • searching of Mail Domains
  • ...

 

Actual existing functionalities in PTC's communities does not support our Compliance Rules.

  • Basic Accounts can be created from anyone without any control of a company's Supervisor.
  • Support Accounts can only be switched back to a Basic Account
  • A Basic Account can't be set to inactive

This functionalities in combination brings the security leak:  Any account that have been created will persist with it's data  including mail address.

Good day Klaus,

This is an interesting idea and if I understand what you are asking for, these things may need to be implemented by Jive.

Are these capabilities available in other software suites?

Best,

Toby

I don't know of any other Customer Community which splits in different type of accounts like it is done in PTC'

Thus I can't answer.

Hi,

     As clarified by Topy, your Idea relates to the Jive & not Integrity. I have closed this Idea as No Plans to Implement in context of Integrity.

Thanks
