As an AxisTV system administrator you can add new user accounts. Adding users (and changing and removing users) is done in the System | Manage Users screen. Before adding a user to the system consider the role the user will fulfill. You may need to add or adjust existing roles in the system via the System | Manage Roles screen.
Once you've decided what role(s) the user will play and what playlists and crawllists they should access you can add them to the system.
The general steps to follow are:
Think of a new user account name and enter it in the blank. The name you supply must not already exist as a user. When you click the Add button the account will be created with no privileges and access to the first playlist and crawllist.
The new user will be added to the system and selected in the blank. All of the changes you make apply to the user selected in this list.
The system assigns the first playlist and crawllist to the user. The defaults appear in and . You are free to assign any playlist and crawllist as defaults, however they must be the same mode (Alert in this example).
The default playlist and crawllist are selected first for the user, however you may want to grant access to more than one playlist and crawllist. The buttons in the Assigned Playlists and Assigned Crawllists areas are used to assign or remove playlists and crawllists from the user. All included playlists and crawllists are available to the user.
AxisTV is capable of generating e-mail for notification and accepting bulletins from e-mail. To enable these features you must enter the actual e-mail address of the user in . If you do not the system will ignore all e-mail from the user and not send the user any e-mail.
When the user is added by the system the Included Roles list is empty. This means the user cannot effectively do anything with AxisTV. You must assign one or more roles, based on what the user should be able to do. The buttons let you include or exclude selected roles.
If you want the user to submit bulletins from e-mail then you can provide defaults for the bulletins.
Every action you take after you click the Add button changes the existing user account. When you add a user the system gives the user no roles (no privileges) and no real e-mail address. To make a user account useful you must change it after it has been added.
