How to Troubleshoot an Issue – An Email has Already Been Used for Another Contact Account
Published:
Issue description
Error message “Email has already been used for another contact account” may occur when you try to add a new user as an agent. This means there is already a user with the same email ID added as a contact.
Solutions
If the above error occurs, you can create an email ID different from the already existing email or make an email ID by converting a contact to an agent.
To achieve this, follow the given steps:
- Search by user email in the Contacts module.
- Open the contact profile.
- Select the Convert to Agent option to convert a contact to an agent.
Note: The agent performing this action should have “Manage Agent” Permission. Else this option will not be visible.
