10.2. Managing Users

Users can be created, edited or removed in the Admin Overview Section. The following fields are required against a User:

  • Email Address (Username)
  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Active - Users can be disabled to temporily or permanently revoke access but retain the User.
  • Staff Status - Will the User have access to the Admin site
  • Superuser status - Gives the User access to all permissions without explicitly assigning them.
  • Groups - Lists the Groups the User is a member of.
  • User Permissions - Individual Permissions granted to the User outside of any Group permissions they may inherit.

10.2.1. Resetting Passwords

It is possible to reset a User password through the Adminstration Menu of TRACKIT.

10.2.2. Deleting Users

Deleting a User from TRACKIT will remove the history and ability to restore the User. A more suitable option has been designed, where a User can be Suspended, but retained in the system for reporting and auditing.

Groups can be added, edited or removed in the Admin Overview Section.
