Add New Users

This page will provide instructions on how to add a new user in Rapla.

Overview

Unless otherwise specified, by default, there are only two administration level users registered in your Rapla application: “admin” and “silverband”. However, as an administrator or as the nominated contact person in your business or institution, you have the option to add more new user accounts to Rapla, assign permission levels, and create login credentials. This knowledge article will guide you on how to create new user accounts in Rapla.

Workflow

NOTE:

The instructions below assume that you have already logged into Rapla as an administrator, or as the Nominated Contact Person or Paradigm Expert in your business or institution. If this is not the case yet, refer to the Install the App page section first.

1, 2, 3 Choose the Users menu from the configuration tree options on the side. Right-click anywhere on the Users section (the areas where there are usernames and the main User menu, otherwise it won’t give you the add new option) and select New > User.

4. After selecting New > User, a pop-up form will appear for you to enter the new user details. Enter the following information:

Field Names	Description
Username	this will serve as the user’s username when you asked them to install and login to Rapla
Name	the name of the user that you want to add
Email	their email address

5. Set the administrator privilege of the new user. Select Yes if you want them to have the administrator privilege, select NO otherwise (see Manage User Accounts for more details on what each permission can and cannot do in Rapla).

6. Click the Save button.

7. After saving the newly created user, their username will now appear under the Users configuration tree. If you want to assign them a password every time they will log in to Paradigm, right-click on the username and select Change Password.

8, 9 Enter the password of the new user, verify, and click the Change button.

SUCCESS:

With the newly created user account record, you can now ask them to download and install Rapla with the login credentials that you just created.
