Create User & Clone User

You have 2 options when creating a new user in DataServ:

1. Create User
2. Clone User

We recommend the Clone User option, as this will allow you to copy the security access of an existing user in the same role as the new user. The Create User option requires you to create the user's security access from scratch.

See the details below on both options.

Create User

The Create User option provides the ability to create a new user.

• Enter values for required fields indicates by an asterisk.  Some fields may vary depending upon your configuration.
• Assign the appropriate security groups. See Setting Security Groups for more information about how to assign the Security Groups. See Security Groups for a description of the Security Groups. 
• Click "Submit" to create the user.

Clone User

Clone User provides the ability to create a new user based on an existing user.

• Click the down-arrow on the right side of the "User to Clone" field.  Select the User ID of the user account you wish to clone.
• Update the "First Name", "Last Name", "Email Address" and "Job Title" field to contain data for the new user account you are creating.   Enter values for the remaining fields.  Fields with an asterisk are required.  
• The "Security Groups" field will contain the cloned user's security groups.  Make any changes necessary for the new user's security access.  (See Setting Security Groups for more information about how to assign the Security Groups. See Security Groups for a description of the Security Groups.)
• Click "Submit" to create the user.
