User Management – How to create users in ARIS

In ARIS, you must create a user for every employee which should have access to the ARIS repository.

To create a user in ARIS, follow these steps.

1. Open the module Administration by clicking on the corresponding icon in the module bar and log in to the database.
   
   
   
   
   
    
2. Right-click on the User folder and select New/User.
   
   
   
   
   
    
3. A wizard dialog opens. Follow the steps in the wizard.

First of all you must insert User name, Full name, …. If you have filled in all fields select Next.

You can assign the user to the groups of your database in the second step.

Then you can assign identifiers to the user.  By assigning a prefix you can identify the users or user groups that have created database items. Prefixes in combination with a sequential number are assigned as identifiers and specified for the Identifier attribute. Each user has a prefix. If no individual prefix has been explicitly assigned to users, the standard database prefix is assigned automatically.

In the next step you assign your new user privileges. The user in the example is assigned the “Database management” privilege and has the privilege “Change management” assigned via a group. The user now has the privilege to edit database attributes and create, modify, and delete languages.

Then you can assign method filters to your new user. The default filter of the database is automatically assigned to the new user, as well as the group filters.

In the last step, you can review the settings of the new user and confirm them by clicking the Finish button. The new user is added.

You can change the assigned function privileges, filters and user group associations at any time by editing the now existing user.
