If you have a portatour® company account − i.e. you own at least 2 user licenses − then your portatour® user database has obtained two new optional fields with today’s update of portatour®. Both fields can be modified via editing the user or be exported and imported via an Excel or CSV file.
- Employee number: This field allows you to assign a unique number (or sequence of characters) to each user in order to identify the users for export and import purposes via API instead of using their e-mail addresses. The respective parameter of the API features is called “employeeNumber” − please refer to the technical API documentation in the options. The advantage of using the employee number and not the e-mail address in the API is that the employee number, as opposed to the e-mail address, does normally not change and ideally originates directly from your ERP/CRM system − e.g. the ID of the user data record.
- Note: This free text field allows you to enter any information that might be of interest to the administrator. It is only shown when editing the user and will not be used internally by portatour®.
