Adding a User

When you add a user, you complete the basic detail information and then determine the extent of application access the user will have by completing the Permissions, Authorities, File Load, and Reports tabs. If desired, you may save time by copying an existing user's settings into the new user record, or you may modify a group of users' authorities to a category/subcategory simultaneously. Users that have not logged in to the application within a set number of days (defined at the system level) will be set to inactive in the system and eventually removed after further days of inactivity.

 

Note:  The User Name and Password values cannot be the same, and the last eight passwords may not be reused.

 

Note:  If dual control is required, another customer user with Customer Users: Add, Edit, Delete permission will have to verify the record before it becomes effective.
