Endpoint Central Account Deletion

Understanding Account Deletion

Account deletion in Endpoint Central can happen at three levels:

  • Deleting Endpoint Central Service: Only the Endpoint Central product is removed from your Zoho organization.
  • Deleting Organization: Your entire Zoho/ManageEngine organization, including all services, is deleted. Users are converted into private Zoho accounts.
  • Deleting Zoho User Account: Your individual Zoho identity and access to all services is permanently removed.

Choose the level of deletion based on what you want to discontinue.

Common Scenarios and Solutions

Case 1: Email Exists in Another Organization

Scenario 1: Email is already linked to a different IAM organization (e.g., due to a trial).

Example: A user signed up for a trial with their work email, and now it cannot be added to the official org.

Solution: Delete the old organization and retry.

Scenario 2: User needs access to apps across different organizations.

Example: A vendor or consultant works with multiple clients using Zoho products.

Solutions:

Case 2: Email Exists in Another Data Center

Scenario 1: Email already exists in a different regional data center (e.g., US instead of EU).

Example: A trial was created in the US DC, but the production org is in EU.

Solution: Delete the account in the original DC and try again.

Scenario 2: User needs access to services in multiple DCs.

Example: A global user wants to access services in both US and EU.

Solutions:

  • Use a new email ID for the second data center, or
  • Use Zoho’s DC migration guide to consolidate the org.

Note: After migration, contact endpointcentralcloud-support@manageengine.com to request a merge.
