How to change the log-in E-mail account after institutional affiliation change????

PatrickYang — Thu, 15 Sep 2016 18:18:35 GMT

My current log-in E-mail is from my previous employer. Given a new job, I would like to change the log-in E-mail to that from the new employer. Is it possible for me to make the change? I do not want to register for a brand new account.

Thank you.

@PatrickYang and @Reeza, I've changed a lot of login names, but need to see if my community manager superpowers extends that far. Stand by.

As I suspected, I can change community login names, but not registration email addresses. The good news...YOU can.

Here's what you do:

1) Go to www.sas.com

2) In the upper fight side of the page, you'll see "Welcome, Patrick."

3) To the right of that, you'll see either "Sign in" or "Edit Profile."

4) Click on either, then select the "Change email" button beneath your email address.

5) Then scroll down and click "Save profile."

Your SAS Profile email is the same as your community registration email.

Thank you, Beverly, for this solution. It does work. After making the change, I am now able to log into the community using a new E-mail address that I just typed in.
