There are two ways to add users. You can import them from a directory service such as Microsoft Active Directory or Novell eDirectory. The other way to add users is one at a time from the Users tab of the Manage Users module.
To add a user
- From the top-level navigation, open the Admin module.
- Select Manage Users.
- Select the Security tab.
- Select the Users tab.
- Click New
.
- Under User Properties, enter the first and last name for the user, their user name and their email address.
- Leave the Distinguished Name field empty. If your organization is using a directory service to create user accounts, such as Microsoft Active Directory or Novell eDirectory, this field will contain the user's Lightweight Directory Access (LDAP) distinguished name. For example: cn=grant mclennan,ou=australia,dc=gobetweens,dc=com.
- From the Authentication Provider drop-down, select the provider that will be used when this user logs on. In Password, type the password for the user. Passwords are case-sensitive and must be at least four characters long; blank passwords are not allowed. You do not need to enter a password if your organization is using a directory service.
- Select Active to make this user available; only active users can access the application and/or be available for selection.
- Select Send Email Notifications to allow the user to receive notifications by email.
- Under Global/Administrative Roles, select the security roles to which you want to assign this user.
- Under Licenses, select the licenses to which this user is assigned. All users must have a license assigned to them.
- Click Save
