Organization settings

You can configure general properties for your organization and sub-organizations. General properties include information such as the organization name, ID, description, address, and number of employees. History information for the organization is also displayed in the general properties.
To access the Organization page, in Administrator, select Organization.
The following image shows the Organization Settings page:
The Organization page displays details about the organization that include the name and address properties, authentication properties, and Data Integration service properties.
The general properties include the following information:
Overview information
The following table describes the overview properties:
Property
Description
Name
Name of the organization.
If you change the organization name, the new name appears on the Organization menu after you log out and log back in.
ID
ID assigned to your organization when it was created. You cannot change an organization ID.
Parent Organization ID
When you view a sub-organization, this property displays the ID assigned to the parent organization. You cannot change an organization ID.
Organization Status
When you view a sub-organization, this property indicates whether the sub-organization is enabled or disabled.
Environment Type
Environment type for the organization, either Development, Production, QA, or Sandbox.
IDMC sets the environment type based on the organization license. In some cases you can edit the value.
The environment type is set in the following ways:
  • - When you create your organization by starting your free trial, the environment type is Sandbox.
  • - When you create a production organization or an additional production organization, the environment type is Production.
  • - When you create a sandbox organization, the environment type is initially set to Sandbox. You can set the type to Development, QA, or Sandbox.
There is no difference in functionality among the environment types.
Important: Validate the value periodically to ensure it matches your organization's deployment environment. If the value is incorrect and you are unable to change it, contact Global Customer Support.
Note: If you are the administrator of a sub-organization but not its parent organization, the user interface allows you to set the environment type to any type, including types that aren't available for your license. To avoid billing issues, don't change the environment type to one that isn't available for your license.
Description
Optional description of the organization.
Number of Employees
Number of employees in the organization.
Deny parent organization access to this sub-organization
When this option is checked, users in the parent organization cannot switch from the parent organization to the sub-organization. Users in the parent organization with the appropriate privileges can make only the following changes to the sub-organization:
  • - Enable and disable the sub-organization
  • - Update the sub-organization licenses
  • - Edit the sub-organization properties such as the organization description and CLAIRE recommendation preferences
This option is displayed on the Organization page for sub-organizations. This option can be changed when an administrator in the sub-organization logs in to the sub-organization. This option is read-only when a parent organization administrator views the organization properties for the sub-organization.
This option is unchecked by default.
Address information
Use the address properties to specify the street address, zip code, state, and country of the organization.
History information
The organization history information displays the date and time that the organization was created, the user who created the organization, the date and time that the organization was last updated, and the user who last updated the organization. IDMC updates the history information when you make changes to the organization.
