In the Users Settings console, Administrators can add new users to XpoLog.
For each new user, the Administrator can:
- Assign a username and password.
- Associate the user with a user group that is defined in the system. Associating a user with a group enables giving permissions to a user at a group level, instead of at a user level.
- Select the user groups that are to be under the new user's administration.
- Set the policy used by the user – either the policy of the groups that the the user is associated with or another policy.
To add a new User to XpoLog:
- In the XpoLog Manager menu, click Security > Users.
The Users console opens. - In the Users console, click Add User.
The Users Settings console opens. - In Username, type a username for identifying the new user.
- In Password, type a password for the new user, and in Confirm Password, retype the password.
- In Display Name, type the name to be displayed across the system for this user.
- Under Associated Groups List, in Available Groups, select a group that you want the user to be associated with, and click Add.

Note: You can remove a group from the Associated Groups list by selecting it and clicking Remove. It then returns to the Available Groups list. - Under Administered Groups List, in Available Groups, select the group that you want the user to administer, and click Add.
The group is moved to the Administered Groups list. - Repeat step 8 for each group that you want the user to administer.
