10.1.4. Creating User Groups
It is possible to generalize one or more user accounts in user groups. Instead of assigning rights to a single user,
a user role or a set of user roles can be assigned to a user group. The whole user group, therefore, receives all
access rights that have been assigned to the user roles.
To create a user group and add user accounts:
1
In the User Rights Management area, right-click on the User Groups main menu and click on Create
new user group.
2
Enter a name for the new group in the User Group dialog box.
3
Click on OK to add user group to User Groups list.
4
Open the All Users main menu and drag the desired user account into the appropriate user group sub-
menu. The user is added to the user group and receives all access rights assigned to this group. A user can
be added to one or more user groups.

10.1.5. Editing and Deleting User Accounts
The first name, last name, and username of a user account can be edited if, for example, an existing user is to
be replaced by a new user with identical access rights. A user account can also be deleted in the editing area.
To edit a user account:
1
Click on User and Rights Management. The User Rights Management dialog box appears.
2
Open the All Users main menu and right-click the user account menu to be edited.
3
Click on Edit the user and the User Account dialog box appears. The name, last name, username, password,
and priority can be changed.
4
Click on the Deleted checkbox if the user account is to be deleted.
5
Click on Save to store the changes.
■
In order to avoid confusion, the Software will not allow for the creation of a new user with the same user
name as a user name that has been deleted. Measurements that have been run under a user name that has
been deleted are still available for viewing.
