How to Create a New User with a Username

This guide will walk you through the process of creating a new user in the Aetos platform using a username. This method is ideal for users who may not have a company email address.

Step 1: Navigate to the Users Page

1. From the main navigation menu on the left, click on Users.

Step 2: Add a New User

1. On the Users page, click the Add button (the plus icon) in the top-right corner.

Step 3: Fill in User Details

1. A form will appear. Fill out the user's information. The following fields are required:
   • First Name
   • Last Name
   • Username
   • Role
   • Locations
2. Once all the necessary information has been entered, click Save at the bottom-right of the screen. The new user will now appear in your user list.

Step 4: Set the User's Password

1. Click on the newly created user's name from the list to open their profile.
2. Select the Change Password button.
3. Enter and confirm a new password for the user.

Understanding the "Temporary Password" Option

By default, the Temporary Password toggle is switched on.

• When ON: The password you set is temporary. The first time the user logs in, they will be required to create their own unique, permanent password.
• When OFF: If you switch this toggle off, the password you create for the user will become their permanent password.

Step 5: Finalize Password Creation

1. After setting the password, click the Save button.
2. A confirmation message, "User has been successfully updated," will appear at the bottom of the screen.

You have now successfully created a new user! Be sure to securely communicate the username and the temporary password to them so they can log in for the first time.
