All Company Community Members Management
Hi All, Happy Friday! I have a question that I hope someone in this group can resolve/explain. Q: How do users become members of the All Company Community? The reason for my question is t...
Ok I have an answer people. It’s an odd one but it works. Basically, you need to apply this licence block but there is a catch!

Some points to consider:
- This change needs to be completed by a GA (Global Admin). Therefore, you might need to get your IT super admins involved.
- If you have Admin accounts that you use to access Viva Engage (including the GA) and they don't have a Viva Engage Core Licence SKU. Then the next time they go to access Viva Engage then they will be blocked. Therefore, you will need some way to licence the Admin Accounts that need to access VE Admin with the minimum of a Viva Engage Core Licence SKU
Before the change I had around 10600 users in my All Company Community but after this it dropped to around 6800 user (around then number I expected to see). Hope this helps everyone.
We have a similar issue with our All Company membership. It's showing as 56k+ but we definitely have 42k or less. No idea how to remove people who have left so it's skewing our reporting.
Oh I am so glad I am not the only one here seeing this. I have an idea why but its taking me time to figure it out. New people seem to be added... when they go to VE for the first time but old people seem to 'stick around'. 😞
