Managing Users for Models

Prerequisites

An administrator also manages a model's Innovator users.

Prerequisites for user administration for a model:

• A License Server must be started
• Model's Model Server must be started
• The Configuration Editor started for the model
• You must be logged-in as model administrator

In the following sections we will assume that these requirements are met.

Tasks

You can access the user management for the model via Configuration Editor with the Configuration>Model Administration>Manage Users menu command.

User management of models from single sign-on repositories includes:

• Creating roles for central user management that should be used in the model (users are assigned to roles in the central user management using the login rules)

• If applicable, renaming roles to adapt them to fit the central user management

• Deleting roles that should no longer be used in the model

• Assigning privileges to roles

• Managing model logins for users

• Storing and loading configuration files for user administration

User management of models from non-single sign-on repositories includes:

• Loading user names from the central Innovator user management on the license server or from your network's user administration (using LDAP)

• Creating, renaming, logging-out and deleting users

• Initially setting and, if applicable, resetting user passwords

• Creating user roles and assigning users to the roles

• Creating, renaming, assigning (users and privileges) and deleting roles

• Managing model logins for users
