2.2.1.2 Adding a New User

Note:

• Prior to performing this procedure, you should know to which user groups the user should be assigned. The group assignment determines the functions that a user has access to. If you need to create a new group for the user, create the group before adding the user (see Add a Group).
• When setting up a user for SOAP provisioning request validation, the only field other than Username and Group used for this validation process is Access Options.

Following are the steps to add a new user:

1. Click Administration, and then Access Control, and then Users.
2. Click Insert.
3. Enter Username that consists of 5-32 characters.
   For more information about Username, or any field on this page, see Insert New User Fields.
4. Select a Group or Groups for the user.
5. Select the Authentication Options to be used with this account.
6. Select the Access Options allowed for this account. When setting up a user for SOAP provisioning request validation, check mark Allow MMI Access. It is recommended you also uncheck Allow GUI Access (users set up for SOAP request validation should not have UDR GUI access).
7. Select whether the account is enabled using the Access Allowed checkbox.
8. Enter the Maximum Concurrent Log ins.

   Note:

   Maximum Concurrent Log ins cannot be enabled for users in the admin group.
9. Enter the Session Inactivity Limit.
10. Enter text about this user in the Comment field.
    This field is required.
11. Perform one of the following actions:
    • Click Apply.

      A confirmation message displays at the top of the Insert Users page to inform you the new user has been added to the database. To close the Insert Users page, click Cancel.

    • Click OK.

      The Users administration page displays again with the new user displayed.

The new user is added to the database.
