Chapter 7: User Management

Adding a New User
It is a good idea to define user groups before creating KX II users
because, when you add a user, you must assign that user to an existing
user group. See Adding a New User Group (on page 111).
From the User page, you can add new users, modify user information,
and reactivate users that have been deactivated.
Note: A user name can be deactivated when the number of failed login
attempts has exceeded the maximum login attempts set in the Security
Settings page. See Security Settings.
To add a new user:
1. Open the User page by choosing User Management > Add New
User or clicking the Add button on the User List page.
2. Type a unique name in the Username field (up to 16 characters).
3. Type the person's full name in the Full Name field (up to 64
characters).
4. Type a password in the Password field and retype the password in
the Confirm Password field (up to 64 characters).
5. Choose the group from the User Group drop-down list. The list
contains all groups you have created in addition to the
system-supplied default groups. <Unknown>, which is the default
setting, Admin, Individual Group.
If you do not want to associate this user with an existing User Group,
select Individual Group from the drop-down list. For more information
about permissions for an Individual Group, see Setting Permissions
for an Individual Group (on page 116).
6. To activate the new user, select the Active checkbox. The default is
activated (enabled).
7. Click OK.
Modifying an Existing User
To modify an existing user:
1. Open the User List page by choosing User Management > User List.
2. Locate the user from among those listed on the User List page.
3. Click the user name. The User page opens.
4. On the User page, change the appropriate fields. See Adding a New
User (on page 120) for information about how to get access the User
page.
