Adding / Editing a User

The Edit User window appears whenever you are Editing the User List by adding a new User record or editing an existing User record.

• Active checkbox should be checked if this user is active.  If unchecked then this user will not be allowed to login.
• Full Name should be the user’s first and last name.
• Alias is a shortened version of the user’s name that will appear in reports and on receipts.  It could be just the user’s first name or initials.
• Login is the password for this user.  To log in only a user’s password is required, not username and password. 

Permissions

• If this user is the member of a Group, then select the appropriate Group from the list.  The user’s permissions will automatically set to the permissions set for his selected group.
• If you want to set custom permissions for this user, then select Custom from the list then click Edit to set the permissions for the user.  (See Setting Permissions for a User or Group.)
