A new team member joins who will need access to development, UAT, partial, or they need to otherwise administrate Fonteva.

.invalid

Before creating, check that the user does not already exist. There is a known behavior wherein a user copied from one server to another may have the suffix .invalid added to their email address. If so, that user will exist but not be able to login nor reset their own password. If you encounter a user that cannot login to a specific server (or all of them), first check for an existing account and, if applicable, remove the .invalid suffix.
