Creating and managing basic users

You can create basic users only if Infor EPM is running on the basic authentication, typically for test farms, and if the IFS authentication for the web is mixed with the basic authentication for clients. In Infor Ming.le, only the IFS authentication is used.

  1. Select Dashboards > User and Permission Management > Users, Groups and Roles.
  2. In the Users section, click Add and select Create Basic User.
  3. Specify a user name.
  4. Optionally, you can specify these options:
    Description
    Specify a description to identify the user.
    The account is disabled
    Select the check box to disable the account.
    The account is restricted by a start date
    Select the check box and specify a date and time at which the account becomes available to use.
    The account is restricted by an end date
    Select the check box and specify a date and time at which the account ceases to be available.
  5. Click the Password tab and specify and confirm a password for the user.
  6. Optionally, you can specify that the user must change the password when they log in, or that the password never expires.
  7. Click the Password Rules tab to specify user-specific settings such as a minimum password length.
    Note: By default, password rules are inherited from a global security policy. To change or apply a rule, you must first clear its Inherited check box.
  8. Click OK.
