To add a new SOAPuser
1.
Click on the button.
2.
Enter the following information under the Username column for the new entry that was created:
l User name:An alphanumerical user name for the user.
l Password:A password to protect the user. Note that the password will always revert to ********(8
stars)when clicking outside of this box - that is normal and is meant to protect the length of the
password as much as its contents.
l Administrator:Choose the permission type
l User:Can access none, some, or all of the processes, selected individually in the
Permissions section.
l Admin: Has access to all processes and features. When this option is selected, the
Permissions section is grayed out an all options are selected in it.
l Disabled:Has access to nothing. The result is the same as not having this user defined at
all, but has the advantage that a disabled user can be reactivated with a simple click.
3. Define the permissions for the user (see below).
4. Click OKto save the changes.
