This
control should be dropped on the same page as the Membership
Join Registration and Login
Request controls.The first step in the membership join process is to identify the prospective member and to ensure data integrity. If the web user is NOT already logged in, the Membership Join Registration control will prompt the web user to enter his/her email address, and the system checks your database to see if the email address is already in use. If the email address is already in the Single Sign On (SSO) database, the User Already Exists control will give the web user the option to log into the site, retrieve his/her forgotten password or username, or provide an alternate email address to begin the membership process. This is not expected to be a frequent occurrence.
This
control should be dropped on the same page as the Membership
Join Registration and Login
Request controls.
For more information on how to configure this control, see Configuring the Web Settings for the User Already Exists Control.
After setting up this control, if your organization does NOT allow multiple
web users to share the same email address, web users will see the page
shown below if he/she enters an email address that already exists in the
SSO database.
As of 7.5.2, if your organization allows multiple web users to share
the same email address, web users will see the page shown below if he/she
enters an email address that already exists in the SSO database.
As
of 7.5.2, the CUS CHECKDUPEMAIL
application
parameter will determine on the Guest
Email Lookup, Membership
Join Registration, Registration,
and User Already Exists controls
in e-Business whether the same email address can be shared by multiple
web users. If you set this parameter to 'N" (you allow duplicate
emails), multiple users can share the same email address. In addition,
if you allow web users to share the same email address, you should NOT
set the CUS WEBUSERNAME_FORMAT
application
parameter to "CUSTOMER_EMAIL_ADDRESS".
