When the system is installed, it includes one user ID with superuser authority. The system administrator can log in using this ID and then create user IDs for all other users. Once the system administrator has set up a user's ID, the user should log in and change the password.
After a user record has been created in the system, you can create additional user records using the prototyping function. This function creates new records with the same settings so that you do not have to re-enter the same information for similar users.
For example, if you create user records for two new employees in accounting, you can define all of the parameters for the first user record and then start to create the second user record. You then apply parameters from the first user record to the second user record, and edit the fields as needed.
You can also create virtual user records that function like queues. For example, you can create a user ID called REQUESTS. Trackers sent to the REQUESTS user ID reside in the job queue for that ID. You can then authorize other users to monitor the job queue and to respond to the REQUEST trackers.
