About Users

Users are defined to represent employees who have access to ManageMore. When a user is entered, a corresponding employee record must be chosen, to maintain a link between these records. Therefore, you must first add employees, before adding users. Additional information and settings can be adjusted for the user to determine the employee's specific access and program behavior.


bulbBefore adding specific resource access to a user, consider whether similar access is granted to other users. In that case, you may consider creating a user group, and assigning the resource access to the group instead. This will dramatically simplify the process of adding new users.

Q & A - Users

Q01.How do I change my password?  
A01.While in the program, press Shift-F11 on your keyboard. You will then be prompted to enter your old password, and then your new password twice for verification.  
 
Q02.Can a system administrator view a user's password?  
A02.No. All passwords are masked (showing asterisks instead of letters) within the program. If a password is forgotten, it can then be reset by a user that has access to Security Administrator.  
 
Q03.   I don't see my question here. Where else can I get information?
