User Guide

Managing users 27
New User Information At a minimum, you must provide the user’s first name, last name, and
e-mail address (to be used as their login), and an initial password. An initial password is created by
Breeze Manager. You can use this password or change it to another value. The user can change
their password after logging in. See “Changing your password” on page 24.
Email the new user their account information, login and password An option you can select
if you want to send the new user an e-mail containing their account information. The e-mail
contains the following: the account name; the name and e-mail of the person who created the
user; user information, including the user name, login, and password; a getting started link; and
support information.
Include link for downloading PowerPoint plugin in email An option you can select if you
want the e-mail that is sent to the new user to contain a link for downloading the Macromedia
Breeze Plug-In for Microsoft PowerPoint. Send the Breeze Plug-In for PowerPoint link only if the
user will be a member of the Account Author group and will be able to publish presentations. You
can select this option only if you also select the Email the new user their account information,
login and password option.
