# A Guide for Administrators: Managing Your Corporate Account

### Summary

As a designated [**Admin User**,](https://support.vlex.com/vlex-library/vlex-library-home/account-and-admin-management/a-guide-for-administrators-managing-your-corporate-account/administrative-users) you can manage your organization's vLex Library account, including adding or removing users, viewing usage statistics, and configuring access methods like Single Sign-On (SSO).

### Why This is Important

Effective account administration ensures your entire team has seamless access to vLex Library and allows you to monitor usage to maximize the return on your investment. This guide provides a central resource for all your administrative tasks.

### How to Access the Admin Menu

1. Log in to your account and click the **person icon** in the top-right corner.
2. Select **Manage corporate accounts** from the dropdown menu. This will open the admin portal with tabs for **Users**, **Statistics**, and access configuration.

#### Managing Users

From the [**Users** ](https://support.vlex.com/vlex-library/vlex-library-home/account-and-admin-management/a-guide-for-administrators-managing-your-corporate-account/user-management)tab, you can:

* **Create a single user:** Click **Create user** and fill in their details. They will receive an email to set their password.
* **Create multiple users:** Click **Create multiple users** and upload a CSV or TXT file with a list of names and emails.
* **Block or delete users:** Select users from the list and click **Block user** or **Delete user**. Blocked users cannot log in but can be reinstated later.

#### Viewing Usage Statistics

From the [**Statistics** ](https://support.vlex.com/vlex-library/vlex-library-home/account-and-admin-management/a-guide-for-administrators-managing-your-corporate-account/usage-statistics)tab, you can:

* Monitor your organization's usage of vLex Library.
* Generate and download reports to analyze activity over specific time periods. This is useful for understanding which content is most valuable to your team.

#### Providing Access (SSO and IP)

* **IP Access:** The **IP access** tab shows the IP addresses assigned to your account for automatic on-site access. Contact your account manager to modify this list.
* [**SSO Access**](https://support.vlex.com/vlex-library/vlex-library-home/account-and-admin-management/a-guide-for-administrators-managing-your-corporate-account/providing-access)**:** For Single Sign-On, contact **vLex support** to receive your **Authentication token** and **Account ID**. Your IT team can then use our publicly available scripts to implement SSO, providing secure and seamless access for your users.

### Best Practices & Pro Tips

* **Use SSO for the Best Experience:** We strongly recommend implementing SSO for corporate accounts. It provides users with secure, personal accounts (enabling history, alerts, etc.) without needing separate passwords.
