Enable Persona Switching

If specific users in your organization have different responsibilities that involve periodically or regularly working in different offices, you can create different person objects with different access levels for those people through "Persona Switching." EmpowerID also supports the concept of a Core identity, so that you can log in with different Person identities that are all linked to the same Core ID. The Core identity is set by the system. If you log in using the Core ID, you can choose which Person to use at login, and also switch between your related 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 navigate to the page by searching for the person using the Global search bar at the top of the page (quickest), or you can navigate to the page by searching for the person using the Find Person page.
