Summary / When to Use This

Use Affiliated Accounts when a single project needs customer users from more than one account (for example, a parent company and a subsidiary, or a partner). Affiliations are set at the project level. Once added, you can invite customer users from either the primary Account on the project or any affiliated account.


Before You Begin

  • You need permission to edit the project (Project Owner, Admin, or Creator access).

  • The accounts you plan to affiliate must already exist under Customers in OnRamp.


Steps to Follow

1. Open the project

  • Go to Projects, then click the project name to open it.


2. Add an affiliated account

  • Open the Settings tab on the project.

  • In the Account section, click Add Affiliated Account.

  • In the dropdown with search, start typing the account name and select it.


3. Invite customer users from any affiliated account

  • In the upper-right, click Members.

  • Click Add Customer User.

  • Use the Account picker to choose either:

    • The project’s primary Account, or

    • One of the Affiliated Accounts you added

  • Search/select the customer user from that account, set their access, and click Invite.


4. Manage or remove affiliations (optional)

  • Return to SettingsAccount.

  • In the Affiliated Accounts list, use the ellipsis (⋮) to edit or remove an affiliation.


Tips & Troubleshooting

  • Don’t see “Add Affiliated Account”? Check your permissions on the project.

  • Can’t find an account in the dropdown? Create it first in Customers, then come back to the project to affiliate it.

  • Removing an affiliation: This doesn’t automatically remove users you’ve already invited. To revoke access, go to Members and remove the user from the project.

  • Primary account vs. affiliated: The project’s Account remains the primary customer record. Affiliations simply broaden who you can invite to collaborate.
