Account details
The following properties can be changed for a user:
- Display name
- Email address
- Account status

Project Membership
At the "Project membership" table, you're able to see from which users and project folders this user receives a share within Research Drive.
Contractdetails
All personal accounts are linked to a contract. For administrative reasons it can be useful to convert an account from contract, so that the user becomes visible to a contract admin.
A contract admin only sees the personal accounts, linked to the contract of which this admin is. Only a contract admin and dashboard admin are able to switch an account from contract.
Requirements for being able to link the project to another contract;
- The new contract must have sufficient available storage quotum
- The new contract must be active
- The contract must have a valid end date
A user who is invited will be associated with the same contract as the person who invited him
Storage
We do not recommend the use of a personal quota. See here for more information.
Services
The service membership can be adjusted at the bottom of the user settings window.
All already linked services will be displayed there, which can be adjusted via the "Edit" button.
The available services can differ per environment. Contact your Research Drive IT Servicedesk or the SURF Research Drive Helpdesk for questions.
