          Create Employee Users for the Employee Services Portal

          Create Employee Users for the Employee Services Portal

          Create the employee users who sign in to the Employee Services portal site, using either the Unified Employee License or the Customer Community Plus license.

          Required Editions

          Available in: Lightning Experience
          Available in: Enterprise, Performance, and Unlimited Editions with Agentforce IT Service.

          Create Users with the Unified Employee License

          Note
          Note We recommend the Unified Employee License for all portal users, regardless of which template your site uses. To move your existing Customer Community Plus users, see Migrate Customer Community Plus Users to Unified Employee License.
          Follow the steps in Set Up Employees for IT Services to create your employee users with the Unified Employee License and add them as members of your portal site.

          Create Users with the Customer Community Plus License

          Required Editions

          User Permissions Needed
          To create user profiles:

          Manage External Users

          AND

          Manage Profiles and Permission Sets

          Create new employee users with the Customer Community Plus license as follows, and migrate to the Unified Employee License when you're ready.

            4. Save your changes.
            5. In the new profile, find Standard Object Permissions and select Read and View All Fields access for the Knowledge object.
              These permissions make sure employees can see knowledge articles in the Agentic Center.

          3. Configure user details.
            1. On the setup page for the user, set the User License to Customer Community Plus.
            2. In the Profile field, select the profile you created earlier.
            3. Save your changes.
          4. Assign permission sets to the user.
            1. On the setup page for the user, under Permission Set Assignments, click Edit Assignments.
            2. Move the required permission sets to the Selected list, and save your changes.

            4. Under Select Profiles, switch to All from the Search drop-down menu.
