Manage Users

Available to: Airline Administrators, Travel Agency Managers, Developer Administrators, Distributor Administrator, Distributor Customer Developer Administrator, Car and Hotel Partner Administrators

As a non-federated administrator, you can manage your organization's access to MyTravelport. You can add users, edit a user's details, and modify a user's status, GTIDs, entitlements, and service configuration.

Federated administrators are able to modify GTIDs, entitlements, and service configuration. They can also export a list of users.

Search for a user

From the Administration menu, select Manage users. The Manage users page displays a list of users that you manage. You can filter the user list by entering a search term and/or by selecting a status.

  • Enter the user name, email address, or organization in the search box and click Search.

  • Select a status by which to filter the user list.

Change a user’s status

Available to: Non-federated administrators

Important: For federated customers, activating and disabling users and changing user profile information are handled through the company's identity provider, rather than through the Manage users page in MyTravelport.

As an administrator, you may approve, reject, enable, disable, or delete any user.

  1. From the Administration menu, select Manage users.

  2. In the Manage users tab, select the check box next to the user(s) whose status you want to change.

  3. Select the appropriate button (Approve, Reject, Enable, or Disable).

    A user’s status indicates whether they have access to MyTravelport. The following statuses can be applied to users within MyTravelport.

    • Approve – If customers create their own account, a newly created customer accounts will have a status of pending and does not have access MyTravelport. An administrator must approve a pending account, which sets the account to Active and generates the welcome email that contains the user’s password.

    • Reject – A pending account can be rejected if you do not want that user associated with the organization.

      Important: Once a user who has self-registered is rejected, you cannot undo the rejection. That email address cannot be used in the future in MyTravelport

    • Enable – A disabled account can be enabled to allow access to the organization through MyTravelport.

    • Disable – An active or enabled account can be disabled, which means that the user cannot access MyTravelport. However, the user remains an entity in MyTravelport and the user’s cases remain.

Important: If you reject a user who has self-registered, you cannot undo the rejection. That email address cannot be used in the future in MyTravelport.

Edit a user’s details

Available to both federated and non-federated users. However, federated users can only modify GTIDs, entitlements, and service configuration.

Important: For federated customers, activating and disabling users and changing user profile information are handled through the company's identity provider, rather than through the Manage users page in MyTravelport.

As a non-federated administrator, you may edit a user’s details.

  1. From the Administration menu, select Manage users.

  2. In the Manage users tab, search for the user you want to edit.

  3. Click the Edit icon () to modify the user details.

For more information, refer to Multi-Organization Settings.

    Select the user’s type from the Select type list.

    • Admin (global) means that the user is an administrator across all CIDBs in the organization. Therefore, the administrator can manage users across the organization.

    • Admin (local) means that the user is an administrator for the CIDB specified and can only manage users for the specified CIDB.

    • User (global) means that the user can raise incidents for all CIDB that are linked to the default organization.
