Super Admin Cutover SOP

Super Admin Cutover SOP

When doing a cutover from one Zoho super admin to another, here are some main things to consider so you do not break any integrations that are set up.


Overview

  • When doing a super admin cutover the best practice is to individually change the super admin for each individual application. 

  • You will be able to change the ownership of applications without having issues with any active integrations if the old user is still active.

    • You will want to make sure all syncs and integrations are moved to a new owner before you disable the old owners account. 


Communication with Client

  • Confirm clients availability for the cutover

    • For the applications Zoho Partner Support needs to get involved with the current super admin will need to be included in all the emails to provide consent for the cutover. 

  • Go through the list of applications in their directory, to confirm the applications they are using and the applications that currently have active integrations

  • Advise the client to not deactivate the previous super admin before all applications are transferred. 

    • You can temporarily change their password. 



Integrations

  • For all applications with active integrations work with Partner Support to make the cutover from the current super admin to the new super admin

  • They are able to make the cutover without interfering with any integrations / syncs. 

    • This ensures we do not break any integrations / syncs

Zoho CRM

  • Once you change the super admin in CRM you will need to reconnect the connections.

    • This does not need done right away, but sooner rather than later

    • This won’t cause any issues until the previous super admin is deactivated

  • To set up connections with the new super admin

    • navigate to Setup - Developer Hub - Connections.

    • Navigate to My Connections - Revoke, then reconnect 


  • Make sure you archive the emails for the previous super admin if you are deactivated them.

Zoho Analytics 

  • For the Analytics integrations once you change the super admin, it is crucial that you re-authenticate any Workspace data sources that are actively synced. 

  • Within the workspace, navigate to Data Sources - Re-Authenticate.

  • Confirm that the data sync was successful. 

 


Zoho Creator 


  • Three30 Group will have to work with Zoho Partner Support to transfer the current super admin to the new super admin (using it or not)

    • Creator is the only application you have to do this


Zoho Survey

  • You will need to repeat this process for every survey you need to transfer ownership of.

    • 1) Hover over the survey you want to transfer to a new user and select the pencil icon to edit

  • 2) Click Advanced Options on the upper right side of the survey builder

  • 3) Click Transfer Survey

  • 4) Select To other users to transfer your survey to individual users. Type in the user's email address in the text box.

  • 5) Click Yes, Transfer Survey. You'll see a confirmation message.


  • The new owner may receive an email notification to accept the ownership of the survey.
