Accept AIC AWS Organization Invitation SOP

This Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) provides a guide on how to join an existing AWS Organization by accepting an invitation.

Step 1: Enter the Account Menu

• Log in to the AWS Management Console.

• Verify that the account information in the top right corner is correct.

• Click your account name to open the dropdown menu.

Step 2: Select Organization Settings

• From the dropdown menu, click the "Organization" option.

Step 3: Accept the Invitation

• On the Invitations page, you will see a request from a management account (e.g., AIC Payer).

• Review the details and click the orange "Accept invitation" button.

Step 4: Confirm Changes

• A confirmation window will appear, noting that this action moves your account to the new organization.

• Note: If your account is currently part of another organization, your access and visibility to that previous organization will be removed.

• Click "Accept invitation" again to execute the change.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter a red error message stating "Failed to accept the invitation...":

• Cause: This usually occurs due to missing IAM permissions or restrictions from a previous reseller.

• Solution: Contact your previous reseller to check the Organization Service Control Policies (SCP) and try logging in with the Root account to attempt the process again.
