Accepting invitations to Zoho Projects

When inviting Users to your Zoho Projects account, there are two scenarios to consider:

1. If the users are new to the system and don't have a Zoho account:

  • Once they click the invitation button “Accept Invitation,” they will be directed to the Sign Up page to create a Zoho account.
  • During the account creation process, they should click on the "Continue signing in" button.
  • Then, they must confirm their email address and registration by clicking the link in the Confirmation Email.

2. If users already have a Zoho account but not a Zoho Projects account:

  • When they access the invitation link, they should only click the "Accept" button to join the organization.
  • They will be logged in to the Zoho Projects account associated with their company.
Note: The user invitation will expire in 30 days after you’ve added the user profile.
