You manage users by adding them, by assigning them to security
groups, by changing general ledger accounts for users, and by performing
other administrative tasks.
Adding users
To manage users, you can create records that contain user names, passwords, and security profiles. These records determine which applications, options, and data that user can access.
Assigning users to security groups
To manage security settings and to grant user privileges,
you can assign users to security groups. New users are assigned to
the default group (MAXDEFLTREG) and the group for all users (MAXEVERYONE).
The default group is used to give newly registered users basic privileges,
and the group for all users is used to specify global settings.
Changing persons associated with users
You can manage your work force information by associating
user IDs with specific person records. Once an association is no longer
being used, you can reuse the user ID with another person record.
Changing the status of users
You can either allow or prevent a user from logging in
by changing the status for the user.
Changing user settings
You can change user settings, such as the settings for
storerooms and insert sites, and settings for screen reader access.
Implementing security for users
You must implement security for users, such as specifying
security groups, specifying passwords, and specifying security profiles.
Copying users
If you are creating a user record and want to use settings
that are similar to those in an existing record, you can copy the
existing one.
Deleting users
To manage employee information, you can delete user records
that you no longer need.
