To create a new user:

1. Open the New User dialog box in one of these ways:

   • Navigate to Administration > User Management > Users. Select File > New > User.

   • Navigate to the room to which to add a new user. Open the room’s Properties: Membership tab by either clicking the Members link on the room’s home page, or accessing the room’s properties. Click the New User button.

   Controls in the New User dialog box are disabled for user managers, except as noted in this procedure.

2. In the Name field, type the user’s name.

3. The User Source property is set to Inline Password, and user managers cannot change it. This setting means that the user must provide a password that is stored only in the repository. There is no external authentication.

4. In the Password field, type the user’s password. The password is encrypted, and stored in the repository.

5. In the Password Verify field, type the user’s password again.

6. Type a Description for the new user (optional).

7. Type the user’s E-Mail Address.

   This is the address to which notifications for workflow tasks, and registered events are sent.

8. In the User OS Name field, type the user’s operating system user name.

   This is the user’s repository user name.

9. Select a Home Repository for the user.

10. To prevent the user’s name from being included in repository member lists, select the Is Unlisted checkbox. Otherwise, the user’s name appears in repository member lists, as usual. For more information on this setting, see Unlisting users, later in this chapter.

11. To restrict the user’s access to specific folders, cabinets, or rooms, click Select Folder to locate, and select them in the repository. For more information on this setting, see Restricted folders, later in this chapter.

    Note

    To remove some containers from the restricted folder list, open it, select the folders, and click Remove. To remove all containers from the list, click Clear.

12. Select one of the following choices for the user’s default folder:

    • Choose existing folder. Click Select Folder to pick a folder, cabinet or room other than the default folder /Temp.

    • Choose/Create folder with the user name. This is the default choice.

13. The Privileges, and Extended Privileges settings are set to None. User managers cannot change these settings.

14. The user’s client capability is set to Consumer, and user managers cannot change it.

15. Click OK to create the new user.
