How to create a Company Profile in 3Shape's Communicate Portal.

NOTE: You may use the same email address as for your 3Shape account or a different one. All main account settings are managed on a company level and are synchronized with company email. That means all notifications will be sent to the company email and can be controlled from there (order confirmations, incoming connection requests, integrations, etc.).
1. Create a Company account
2. You will be redirected to a Company creation page.
3. Fill in the details of the Profile tab - press NEXT.

4. Fill in the details of the Contact tab. Fill in contact information for your company, the country, postal address, and phone number - press the Register Company button. 
NOTE: Please make sure to select the correct country, as it will determine which 3Shape Server your cases will be stored in. 

11. You will see a confirmation of the registration of your company. As soon as company creation is finished, you will be able to use your 3Shape account.
NOTE: When you register a company you will, by default, become the assigned “administrator” and “owner” for it.

Adding clinic staff to your company profile

1. Press NEXT from the confirmation page after your company is registered.  
2. Add the clinic staff by providing their email addresses and setting their role. Select SEND INVITATIONS.
 

3. You are now ready to get started with your company’s 3Shape Account.  Press the Let’s Get Started button to use your new account.
4. Check the required permissions and press the Submit button.  Now you have access to all 3Shape platforms and services!

With a 3Shape Account, you additionally can have the following opportunities: 

• Create multiple companies with the same name (different email addresses though!)
• Create multiple teams with the same name and email address, but under different companies.
• Subsequently, it is possible to have 1 Invisalign account connected to different teams that have different emails.

Unfortunately, you cannot: 

• Have the same team's name under the same company. 
• Have the same email address for different companies – the uniqueness of the email is kept.
