# User Management

## Single-Sign-On Users 

The Single Sign-On (SSO) feature is part of the new AccessNow account setup. SSO integration is configured in collaboration with the customer's IT department. Once configured, users can log into AccessNow seamlessly, without needing a username or password.

Users are automatically created in AccessNow through Single Sign-On (SSO) integration. However, it is also possible to [create users beforehand](/command-centre/accessnow-user-guide/system-administration/user-management/creating-and-updating-a-user.md), such as for configuring the system.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Channel partners responsible for configuring AccessNow should be part of their customers' Single Sign-On (SSO) infrastructure. 
{% endhint %}

## User List  

All AccessNow users are visible in the system in the **Users** **module**. The SSO users will only appear in the AccessNow User list **after logging in for the first time**.

<summary>Non-Single-Sign-On Users used for the AccessNow account configuration</summary>

For channel partners who cannot use their customers' Single Sign-On (SSO) to access AccessNow, there is an option to use non-SSO accounts. It is advised that these accounts be used temporarily and only on an exception basis.\
\
**All non-SSO users are required to configure and use two factor authentication.**

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Update on Privileges for Non-SSO Users**\
Once the system configuration is complete, delete non-SSO accounts or align their privileges with the Channel Partner/Security Installer tasks in AccessNow, such as workflow maintenance. For example, assign them to the "Workflow Managers" group to allow workflow maintenance.
