Check Which Tenant is Active

There are several ways users can check which tenant is active. The options depend on the level of access the user has.

Check on Login Page

Administrators with Multiple Access assigned as their BCP Type can check which tenant is active on the login page. These users have a selector on the login page that lets them log in to either the primary or Multi-Region BCP tenant. It also shows which tenant is active and which is disabled.

Check in My Profile

During an emergency situation, any user can check which tenant is active. This may be useful since users are automatically redirected to the Multi-Region BCP tenant when logging in and may not notice. Each user's profile information shows which tenant they're logged into. The name of the tenant should indicate which one is active. For example, the tenant name could be Classics Inc. BCP, or Classics Inc. Backup.

  1. In NiCE CXone, click your profile icon in the top-right corner.

  2. Select My Profile.

  3. Look at the Account name in the General Information section. This is the tenant's name, which should indicate whether it's a backup system.
