Registering for an Account using an Entitlement ID or Activation ID
You clicked the Register link in the End-User Portal login page, and you are now at the Register for Account page. If you have an entitlement ID or activation ID, you can self-register and create your own End-User Portal account.
To self-register and create your own End-User Portal account:
|
1.
|
Enter your entitlement ID or activation ID in the Activation ID field. This is a required field. |
|
2.
|
Provide your Last name and First name. These are required fields. |
|
3.
|
Enter a valid Email address (in order to receive a system-generated password). A valid email address is required and, for most users, later serves as a user name on the login page. |
|
4.
|
For Company, type the name of your company or organization. A name is required. |
|
5.
|
Optionally, type your Phone, Fax, Street, City, State, Zip/Postal Code, and Country. |
|
6.
|
Select a Locale and a Time Zone from the drop-down lists provided. |
|
•
|
The locale is used to display dates in the appropriate format. In addition, if the End-User Portal has been localized, the End-User Portal will show pages in the locale’s language and format. For example, for a French locale, dates will be displayed in the format dd/mm/yy and the text will appear in French. |
|
•
|
Timezone is used to determine when a certain transaction is completed. For example, if a user in the GMT timezone created an object at 4 PM, a user in the PST timezone would see the created time at 8 AM. |
|
7.
|
You may Opt in to receive email from the marketing department of your software publisher or hardware manufacturer. |
The End-User Portal sends a welcome message to the email address you provided. That email message includes your user name and a temporary password. The next time you log in to the End-User Portal using your new user name, you will be prompted to change this password.
If you have additional entitlement IDs or activation IDs that you want to activate or manage through this End-User Portal account, after you log in to the End-User Portal, map the IDs to your account.
