Managing Tenants
Purpose {#purpose}
As a platform administrator, you create new organizations (tenants) and manage their master data.
Navigation: /platform/tenants or /platform
Tenant List {#tenant-list}
/platform/tenants shows all organizations with:
- Name and subdomain
- Status (active, inactive, …)
- Creation date
- Quick actions
Create a New Tenant {#create-a-new-tenant}
-
Create tenant on
/platform/tenants -
Required fields:
- Name — company display name
-
Subdomain — e.g.
acme→acme.evisys.app -
Time zone — e.g.
Europe/Berlin
- Optional: load demo data
- Save
After creation, the tenant is reachable at its subdomain.
Status Effects {#status-effects}
| Status | App access | Background jobs | Timer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Active | yes | yes | — (clears trial timer for non-demos) |
| Trial | yes | no | 14 days, then auto-suspended |
| Suspended | no (unavailable page) | no | — |
| Inactive | no (unavailable page) | no | — |
Changes take effect immediately. Setting status to Trial (or extending) starts/renews the 14-day window. Demos use the same timer.
Demo Tenant {#demo-tenant}
Use the Demo tab on /platform/tenants to create a showcase tenant:
- Starts in Trial status with the 14-day timer
- Rich sample data (inventory, orders, crew, stocktakes, finance, …)
- Notifications suppressed
- Extend (+14 days) from the tenant detail page
Tenant Detail {#tenant-detail}
/platform/organizations/:id — overview with:
- Master data summary
- User count
- Status and demo expiry
- Links to edit, users, roles, data
Edit Tenants {#edit-tenants}
Master Data (Platform) {#master-data-platform}
/platform/organizations/:id/stammdaten
Platform-side editing of name, subdomain, status, time zone — similar to tenant master data, but with platform permission.
Danger Zone {#danger-zone}
/platform/organizations/:id/danger
Critical actions (e.g. deactivate or delete tenant) — only with deliberate confirmation.
Warning: Deletion is irreversible and affects all tenant data.
Subdomain Rules {#subdomain-rules}
- Subdomains must be unique
- Lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens only
-
Reserved names (e.g.
www,platform) are blocked
Common Issues {#common-issues}
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Subdomain taken | Choose another name |
| Tenant not reachable | DNS/host routing; status “active”? |
| No login in tenant | Create users under Tenant Users & Roles |
