Functions
Add user
The Add User page shows a single tab, Profile. This page displays a form where you need to enter information about the user to be created. Most of these fields are mandatory.
The user's e-mail, e.g. which they will also use for retrieving their passwords in case they forget. This field is mandatory.
Status
Any created user can be initially set with any of the following statuses:
- Active
- Inactive
- Blocked
This field is also mandatory.
Account Access
When adding a new user, you can choose two ways to create that user's password:
- Send an Email Invite - Basically, you choose this if you want the user to set up the password themselves;
- Type Password Manually - Choose this if you want to set the password yourself.
Send an Email Invite
When this option is set, and the Add User page form is completed and saved, it generates an e-mail message with a link to a password setup page, like below:
Clicking on the link takes the message recipient to the password setup page, where they can enter the password they desire on the “Set your password” field.
They also have to repeat this password on the “Confirm Password” field. Both passwords must match.:
Clicking on the “Submit” button registers the passwords into the system. If successful (i.e. the passwords match and there were no connection issues), the system will show a success popup, logs the user in automatically, and take the user to the Dashboard / Reports page.
Type Password Manually
If you choose to create the password manually, the page adds two fields in the form: Password and Confirm Password. Both fields are mandatory and must match.
User Role
This assigns a role to the user, which allows and/or prohibits the user from access to some of the portal's features. This field is mandatory. See Roles.
Project

LGUs
