User Manager

The User Manager allows authorized users to set up and maintain various components of a user’s security access. The features within the User Manager enable you to add new users, set up and modify user profiles, change passwords, and set assigned groups, security rights and associated sponsors.

Accessing User Manager

On the blue menu bar, click Security.

Click User Manager.
The Search for User screen displays.

Before proceeding in the User Manager, you must always search for and select a user you wish to access. If you have already selected a user or are elsewhere in the application, return to the User Manager screen.

From the User Manager/Search for User Page, select the type of search on the Search By drop-down list. Enter the Last Name, User Name or CNIPS ID in the text box, and click Search or click All to display a list of all users. A list of users matching the search criteria displays.

Select the User you wish to access. The User Options menu displays.

Adding a New User

From the User Manager screen, click Add New User. The User Profile screen displays.

Enter the new user's information in the User Information section.

Enter the new user's login name and password.
Enter the password again for confirmation (The new user is required to create a new password upon first logging in.)

Use the buttons to select if the user is a state employee, an administrator, and if the user is to only be granted access to associated sponsors.

Use the drop-down menu to select the user's status. 

Click Save. A confirmation screen displays.
