Important

The guest user you are editing is sometimes a new guest user who was originally a member of the non-guest group and who has a user electronic certificate issued. In this case, editing the user ID (including case changes) invalidates the electronic certificate. For this reason, the user will no longer be able to log in by using the issued electronic certificate after the user becomes a member of the non-guest group from the guest group. For electronic certificates, contact your representative user or group manager.
