Users

A user is a login to ARM. Users are not the same as employees: an employee is someone you pay and track on timesheets, while a user is someone who can sign in. The Users list shows each login's Name, Email, Group, User Name, Super Admin flag and Status, and the Group column is what decides which screens that person can open.

How do I add a user? #

How do I stop a user from signing in? #

  1. From the Home Screen, click System Setup Tools → Users.
  2. Find the person in the list — type part of their name in Search, or set the records-per-page list to All to see every login.
  3. Click the edit icon in the Action column.
  4. Set Status to Deactive. Deactivate the login rather than deleting it, so the history of what that person did in ARM is kept.
  5. Click Save.
