5. External users / users not created (yet)

1. If you can not find a name as you would like to assign him to a course in Moodle, but this user has an MS username, it means that this user never logged in to Moodle.
All accounts will be created as the user logs in to Moodle. If the MS access is expired, you need to renew it (in the IT system) in order to give access.
If you would like an account to be created before this first access, please write an email to acsg@ceu.edu.

2. If someone will not get a CEU Microsoft account, we can create an external account for him in Moodle.

If you never done this, you need to ask for user creation rights.

Two methods are available for the user creation:

I. Upload the new users with a CSV file
  • The accounts are created automatically and immediately
  • Emails are sent to the new users
  • Email addresses, and names are needed in an excel (CSV) file
  • It is more complicated to create the file correctly, but it is easier to handle a large amount of users
II. Invite the new users by email address
  • An Invitation is created, the users need to register to get accounts
  • You can decide if you want the system to send an automatic email or you can invite the users yourself
  • Only email addresses are needed
  • It is really easy to invite the users, but large amount of users are harder to handle
