How to Add Users to the Office 365


Adding Users to the O365:
As a best practice, when you first sign in to the Office 365 portal, you should create a second Global administrator account. In situations where the administrator is unavailable due to unexpected circumstances, or the password is forgotten, having a second global administrator account ensures access to all configuration and setup capabilities. First, you will create John Snow’s account and make him a Global administrator. Then, you will create a standard user account for Robb Stark.

1.      Click setup in the left pane and select start.
2.      Click Add users and assign licenses
3.      Select Add users one at a time and click next.

4.      For First name, enter John; for Last name, enter Snow; for Display name, enter John Snow; and for User name, enter Johnsnow.

Note
(Optional) You can enter other details by clicking Additional Properties. These details appear in the Global Address List for Microsoft Exchange Online and Lync Online.
