Enable Validation of Work Email for Users and Roles

You can enable validation of the email that you enter on the Manage Users task. When validation is enabled, a warning message appears if you enter a duplicate value. The message provides the name, the user name, or both of the email owner.

This warning enables you to enter a unique email before saving. Validation of the email on the Manage Users task is disabled by default. This topic explains how to enable validation of the email value on the Manage Users task.

Enable Email Validation

Follow these steps to enable validation using the profile option, PER_MANAGE_USERS_EMAIL_VALIDATION.

1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, use the Manage Administrator Profile Values task.

2. On the Manage Administrator Profile Values page, enter PER_MANAGE_USERS_EMAIL_VALIDATION in the Profile Option Code field and click Search.

3. In the Profile Values section of the search results, enter Y in the Profile Value field.

4. Click Save and Close.

Note: When validation of the work email is enabled, it only applies to the Manage Users task. It doesn't apply to user accounts that you manage on the Security Console.
