Adding a User

Before setting up a user's security in the Security Maintenance window, you must first create a "user record" for each user. A user record stores information such as the user's name and password. Note: this procedure explains how to add users from the Options Configuration window. You can also add users from Security Maintenance or from Role-Based Security Maintenance.
