Creating user accounts : When creating a new user in IBM® OpenPages® GRC Platform, you must FIRST select the group to which the user will belong. Then, enter information about the user and user account.

If you have not created an APPROPRIATE group for the new user, you can add the user to the top-level Security DOMAINS group or Workflow, Reporting and Others group. In addition, you can create an "Everyone" or "All_Users" group under the top-level Workflow, Reporting and Others group and add all the users to this group. At a later time, you can then associate these users to the required security domains. In this way, there is one group that lists all users. See Creating an organizational group for details.

If a user is responsible for adding, editing, or removing folder-based ACCESS control (ACLS) using the Custom Security menu option on the Administration menu, the user should be associated with a group that has Access Control Lists application permission.

Procedure

• Select Administration from the menu and click Users, Groups and Domains.
• Expand the list of groups and click the name of the group to display the detail page.
• On the Users tab, click Add New.
• Enter the necessary information for the new user account. It is best practice to include the first name and surname when you create a user.
• To assign a profile to the user, select the profile value from the Profile field.
• Select the Password never expires password behavior. If you select a different option, an Admin user must change the password when it expires.
• Click Create.

What to do next :

• If the new user account was created under an "Everyone" or "All_Users" group, go to Associating users with a group to give the user access to a business entity.
• If the new user account was created under a security domain group that corresponds to a particular business entity, go to Assigning a role to a user or group to assign the user access control permissions.
