Display overview of the user accounts registered with HWS. The user accounts are listed in a table and (by default) sorted alphabetically on account name. The account name is listed under the "User" column and is used for logging in.
Manipulation of user accounts is only allowed for users with sufficient
permissions (i.e., "Maintenance" permission). An individual user
account can be modified by clicking on its associated wrench icon
(). Removing a user account is
done by clicking the trashcan icon
(
) associated with the
account. A new user is registered with HWS by clicking the "New User"
button which is located below the user account list.
This screen allows creating a new user or modifying the account of an existing user. A user account consists of the following fields and settings:
Username | Login name of the user, usually a single word. This field must be specified. |
Full Name | Name of user written full-out. |
Password | Password for this user account. There are no requirements when specifying a password; the password may even be empty. |
Permissions | There are 4 types of permission flags controlling access to HWS and the
stored data:
|
Locked | This setting provides a method of (temporarily) disabling an account without having to remove it. |
The "Save" button commits the new user account or the modified account to the database. The user is automatically redirected to the user account overview. Selecting the "Cancel" button discards any changes made to the user account. Again, the user is redirected to the user account overview.
