Successfully adding a new user requires setting the following information.

 

Personal Information

 

User Name – a unique name that identifies the user to the system.  This will be the same value required to successfully log in to the system.

Email – a valid email address for the user.

 

Permissions

 

User Type – drop-down list used to determine if the access level is User or Admin.

oAdmin has full access, including the Administration module.

oUser has access to designated areas only and excludes the Administration menu. Access to designated areas and the amount of control are set by selecting or clearing the application boxes that follow the User Type selection box.

User Group – Select from the adjoining drop-down list the vehicle group(s) that is associated with the new user.  Select an existing group (i.e., Fleet_Manager_Group), or Custom.  

Click the tabs that will be associated with the new user. Once the groups for restriction are set, these groups will be the only groups accessible when the user logs into the system. Multiple groups can be selected for access.

 

After selecting all values, click Save to save the new user. An email will be sent to the user with notification that a new account has been created by the ARMOR administrator. The new user will then appear as a new entry in the control panel.

Password Validation with Active Directory

 

Note: Active Directory only works for on-premises installations.

 

When creating a new user, selecting the 'User is an Active Directory user' check box will apply the information from the active directory. Active Directory users reduce the amount of data needed to enter ARMOR making it easier for administrators to enter users.   The Email entry text box becomes inactive.
