If a new user is very similar to an existing user, use the Insert Like command to save time. For a new user that is unlike an existing user, use the Insert command.
| Note: You must assign an administrative unit to the new user. Without an administrative unit, he or she cannot use the system because the user must select an administrative unit when logging on. Since it is possible to save the new user and close the window without assigning an administrative unit, and since the system will not warn you of this condition, double-check that these assignments are made before closing the window. |
This command creates a new record and copies all parameters, except user name and password, from the selected user. To create a new user with this command:
In the Admin. Units Available pane, select the selected administrative unit(s) to which the new user is assigned.
| Note: Selecting an administrative unit in the Administrative Unit column of the User pane is not the same as selecting an administrative unit in Administrative Units. The column in the User pane is for identifying which folder paths a user has access to for uploading files and accessing import files on the mount drive. |
Use the following steps to add a new user:
In the Available Admin Units pane, select the administrative unit(s) to which the new user is assigned and which he or she may select when logging on. To accomplish this, right-click the desired administrative unit and then click Select This. Use Select Branches to assign the user all the sub-administrative units beneath an administrative unit header. Select All assigns the user to all administrative units. (If you want to change a user's assignment, "de-select" versions of all these commands are also available.)
