This page shows how a Storefront User can change their account email, in addition to the new email address verification process.

Storefront users can change the email address associated with their account in the User Settings section on the My Profile page.

All users can modify their email address on the Storefront, regardless of their assigned role.

Select Change next to the email field to open the Change Email dialog box.

 

Follow the steps below to proceed with the verification process:

  1. Enter your password and select Next.

     

  2. Enter the new email address you would like to associate with your account and select Next.

     

  3. An email is sent to the specified address, containing a 6-digit verification code. If the email has not been received, or the verification code has expired, select Resend.

     

  4. Enter this code in the Verification Code field and select Verify.

 

Associated Notifications

The two notifications in this section must first be enabled in BSS → Administration → Notifications → Customer Notifications → Contacts.

After the email address has been updated, an email notification will be sent to the user's previous email address, informing them that their login email has been changed. The email will also contain the new email address which they can now use to login.
