Users

Overview

SuiteFactory requires that only Users have access to the various features of SuiteFactory.  There is a default User called Administrator who has full access to all of SuiteFactory.

SuiteFactory allows an Administrator to create as many Users as needed and allows them to associate a User with "User Groups" which have "Rights" associated with them, thus allowing the User to inherit these "Rights".

Normally an Administrator creates Users as individuals or in some cases groups.

See below how to create Users.

Main Tool Bar

Click on the Users "Icon" and the following screen will be displayed.
