Adding users to IBM Controller

You must add the same users that you added to IBM® Planning Analytics to Controller.

Before you begin

Note: The first user ID to log in to Controller is automatically mapped to the ADM user ID. After the first login, you must always use this user ID to add new Controller users. The first user ID to log in to Controller is usually the Admin user shown in your welcome kit.
