hi mckuta,

 

from description, presume in scenario.

1. agency work in organization.

2. state agency work in b organization.

3. want users in b organization access sharepoint online of organization accounts such *** email address removed privacy ***.

 

if yes, i’d need verify , add xxx.gov in organization’s tenant first , create new users’ accounts. however, don’t recommend 2 companies , doing may cause problems in user management. instead, in scenario, can use external sharing achieve requirement.

 

if mentioned above isn’t experiencing, please provide , confirm following.

1. provide more information environment , how create user accounts. appreciate if can list steps.

2. upload screenshots related error messages when creating user accounts.

 

thanks,
