Create a User via Mixed Mode Authentication

Mixed mode authentication allows administrators to choose whether they want to create a user manually by assigning a Governance Portal password or using the individuals' network ID. For instance, if you have a contractor or consultant who will be using the Governance Portal on a temporary basis, you can create a login ID for the Governance Portal without having to create a network ID for that user.

Note: Your IT system administrator is responsible for the setup and synchronization with the directory. There are settings that need to be established in the Site Settings area of the Governance Portal to use this functionality. See the Governance Portal Installation and Administration Guide for additional information regarding site settings.
