The User Manager dialog is used to create, edit, and delete users and user groups and manage user roles. In addition, you can access the User Rights Report and Operation Log.

Viewing and Editing User Properties

As a non-administrator user, you can view and edit only your own user properties.

  1. Select the user name from the list and click the Properties button.
  2. In the User Properties dialog that opens, you can change the User Name, E-Mail address, Password, and Description.
  3. To apply the changes, click OK.

To join a group, click Join, input the Group Member Join-In Token, and click OK.

Viewing the User Rights Report

As a non-administrator user, you can view only your own User Rights Report.

The User Rights Report can be opened by clicking the Report button. A sheet containing the User Rights is created. Additionally, you can select the Show Permissions check box to have the sheet display the Permission IDs and Permission Names. The report can be filtered, so you can quickly list users, for example according to their Roles.


Depending on the role, the following actions are available.

Creating a User or a User Group

  1. In the left side of the dialog, select either Users or Groups according to which one you want to create.
  2. Click the Create button and define the properties in the dialog that opens.
  3. Close the creation dialog by clicking OK.

Note that creating a User Group requires that the creator has the Administrator, Model Creator, or Evaluator role for the <All> Model level.

When creating a new User Group or viewing the properties of a User Group, you can create a Join-In Token for a regular group member or a hidden group member. By clicking Join in the User Properties dialog and inputting the token there, the user can join the group for which the token was made.

Assigning a User to a User Group

  1. Select the user from the list on the left side of the dialog.
  2. In the right side of the dialog, select Group Memberships.
  3. Select the group from the Group drop-down menu.
  4. Click Add.

Assigning a User Role to a User or a User Group

  1. Select the user or the user group from the list on the left side of the dialog.
  2. Select the specific model to which you want to assign the role from the Model drop-down list. Selecting "<All>" will apply the role to all models available.
  3. Select the Role from the Role drop-down list.
  4. Click Add.
