How do I add an existing Apple ID to Mac?

I want to add as an additional user with Administrator status another person, who already has an Apple ID.


These instructions (https://support.apple.com/en-hk/guide/mac-help/mtusr001/mac ) only advise as to how to create a new user with a new Apple ID.


Any help?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.3

Go through the steps to create a new admin account, then ignore the steps to create a new Apple ID. Instead use the Apple ID that the other person has.
