(v24) Add Users

Add Users

The system admin users or a user who has been assigned to a group with user management privileges can add users to your environment. If you use tenants to manage access to resources and data, the supplied admin user and users belonging to the Supervisor group can add users to one or more tenants during user creation as well.

When Logged In as Member of the Supervisors Group

Members of the Supervisors group can add new users to your environment, with the following caveats:

• The new user is not assigned to any groups. Only the supplied admin user or a user who has been assigned to a group with user management privileges can assign groups to users. If you use tenants to manage access to resources and data, a tenant admin or a user who has been assigned to a group with user management privileges can assign groups to users in the tenant.

• The Require password change switch on the Info tab is always on (set to Yes) to require users to change their password when they first log into Composer. Change to No if needed.

• If you use tenants to manage access to resources and data, new users are created in your environment with no tenant membership. Members of the Supervisors group or any system admin user can add new users to tenants as required.

Add a user (Supervisor group members)

1. Log in as a system admin user or a member of the Supervisors group. Select System Users to open the Manage Users work area and list all users in your environment.
