Considerations
- Organizations are a method for organizing users and applying shared settings.
- A user can only belong to one organization at a time.
- To change an organization's quotas for Incydr Basic, Advanced, and Gov F1, you must have a role with administrative rights to the organization's parent organization, such as the Cross Org Admin role.
Incydr Professional, Enterprise, Horizon, and Gov F2
Create an organization
- Sign in to the Code42 console.
- Select Administration > Environment > Organizations from the navigation menu.
- Click Create organization.
- Enter a descriptive name for the organization.
Names must contain at least 3 characters, to a maximum of 220 characters.
- To automatically assign the new organization to a parent organization, select an existing organization from the Parent organization list.
By default, new organizations are created as children of your top-level organization, but you can select a different parent organization if needed. When you add a child organization using the Actions menu on the organization detail screen, the new organization is automatically created as a child of that existing organization and this list is not available.
- Click Create to add the new organization.
Organization inheritance
Child organizations inherit the device backup settings of their parent organization by default. To edit the settings for a child organization, open the
organization details and change the
Inherit settings from parent organization setting as needed.
Incydr Basic, Advanced, and Gov F1
Changing organizations can affect backups
If users are moved to a different organization, it could affect their backup. For example:
Add an organization
- Sign in to the Code42 console.
- Select Administration > Environment > Organizations from the navigation menu.
- Click Add an Organization
.
- Enter a descriptive name for the organization.
- Click Add to create the organization.
Add a child organization
- Sign in to the Code42 console.
- Select Administration > Environment > Organizations from the navigation menu.
- Click the name of the organization to which you want to add a child organization.
The organization's details appear.
- From the action menu, select Add a Child Organization.
- Enter a descriptive name for the organization.
- Click Add to create the organization.
Organization inheritance
Child organizations inherit the device backup settings of their parent organization by default. To edit the settings for a child organization, open the organization details and select Device Backup Default Settings from the action menu. Then, disable the Use device defaults from parent setting.
