Enable Persona Switching

If specific users in your organization have responsibilities that require them to work in different offices periodically or regularly, you can create separate person objects with distinct access levels for those users through a feature called "Persona Switching." EmpowerID also supports the concept of a core identity, allowing users to log in with different person identities linked to the same core ID. The system defines the core identity, and when logging in with the core ID, users can select which person identity to use. Additionally, users can switch between their associated person identities while logged in.

Enable persona switching

1. Navigate to the View or View One page for the person to whom you want to enable persona switching. EmpowerID provides two main ways to do this. You can search for the person using the Global search bar at the top of the page (quickest) or the Find Person page.
   
   

2. On the View or View One page, expand the Roles, Accounts and Login Security accordion and click the Edit link in the Authorized to login as pane.
