User Management

The User Management page (menu Administration → User Management) is only visible to users with the Administrator role. It is used to create, modify and delete the accounts that can log in to the ALC Palletizing Software.

Roles

Role Permissions
Administrator Full access, including user management
Data Editor May use all data changing functions (Add, Edit, Delete, Import, Calculate)
Read-only May view all pages; all data changing controls are shown greyed out and disabled

The roles of the currently signed-in user are displayed in the user menu (person icon on the right of the menu bar).

Add User

Add User opens a form for the login name, the password and the two permission flags (Administrator, Edit Data). The Logout button next to it signs the current user out.

Edit / Delete User

Edit opens the same form with the existing values pre-filled; the password can be reset here. Delete permanently removes the account.

Note: Make sure at least one account with the Administrator permission always remains — otherwise the User Management page can no longer be reached.
