An enterprise invitation code is a unique code that allows an Alibaba Cloud account to join an organization. An Alibaba Cloud account that receives the code can join the organization through account affiliation. You can reuse the invitation code. For security, you can also reset the code. This topic describes how a super administrator invites an unverified Alibaba Cloud account to an organization.

Background information

A super administrator can also use an enterprise invitation code to change the verified entity of another enterprise account to match their own and add the account to the organization. This does not apply to sole proprietorships. You can then manage the account on the Account Group page.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Account Center as the super administrator. Under My Entity, select Enterprise Real-name Information to go to the Enterprise Information page.

    The Enterprise Information page contains the following sections:

    • Account Statistics: displays the number of accounts, total roles, and total affiliated enterprises.

    • Basic Information: includes enterprise name, unified social credit code, MA (super administrator), enterprise authorization letter (can be Downloaded), and activation time.

    • Invitation Code: displays the current invitation code, with Copy and Reset Invitation Code options.

    • MA Settings: includes administrator, account UID, administrator phone number, and super administrator account, with Modify and Transfer options.

  2. Copy the invitation code and send it to an unverified Alibaba Cloud account. The account can use the code to request to join your organization. After joining, the account automatically completes enterprise identity verification. Its verified entity becomes the same as your enterprise's entity.

    1. Log on to the Account Center with the unverified Alibaba Cloud account.

    2. On the Account Affiliation page, enter the enterprise invitation code and click Initiate Now.

    3. Read and agree to the affiliation request notice, and then click Start Request.

      The notice describes the changes that take effect after the affiliation request is submitted:

      • The verified entity becomes the same as the enterprise's entity.

      • Account security information is bound or changed by the enterprise.

      • The account establishes a shared financial credit relationship with the enterprise and all its managed accounts.

      • The account can use the enterprise's affiliated entity information (invoice headers, contract signing entities, address information, contact information, etc.).

      After reading, select I have confirmed the above content.

    4. Select an administrator account for review, enter a description for the request, and click Confirm and Initiate.

    5. The request is sent. Wait for the administrator to review it.

  3. Log on to the Account Center with the administrator account that you selected for review. On the Overview page, navigate to the Account Tasks page.

    Click the Pending Tasks tab to view Join Affiliation tasks with status Under Review.

  4. In the task list, find the request and click Process Now in the Actions column to approve the request to join the organization.

    In the Details dialog box, review the request information including the initiating account, task type, and effects, then click Approve Request. To reject, click Reject Request.

  5. After the affiliation is complete, the unverified Alibaba Cloud account automatically completes enterprise identity verification. Its verified entity becomes the same as the entity of the administrator account. The administrator can manage the account on the Account Group page.
