Users Overview
Note
This article relates to both the TM2 and TM3 versions of the desktop software.
Note
Please be aware only System Administrators can access the Users tab
The Users section will allow you to use different search fields to help you locate users that log into your TM2. Users search is at the top of the user's section. From here users can search for a user(s); to search for a user, populate one of the search fields and press the Search button. To quickly remove the data you have entered into the search fields, click the Clear button.
There are different search parameters users can use:
- Location - when a user clicks on the locations field it will open a drop-down allowing the user to filter by location. If no location or All my locations is selected it will show users for all locations.
- Type - when a user clicks on the type field it will open a drop-down allowing the user to filter by the account states. An account can either be Current or Non-current. A current user is a user that is using your TM2 at present. A non-current user is a user who has used your TM2 in the past and can no longer log in.
Info
Please take note - user accounts cannot be deleted in TM2
- User - this field allows a user to enter text or numbers to search for a specific user(s).
The next part to the user's section is how to sort user accounts, as previously mentioned. Users can sort user accounts in different ways. One of which is to Drag a column header to the grey area to sort the records. Column headers are such things as Role, Location etc.
Using this method a user can add more than one search parameter. The example above is sorting the user accounts by their Role. This will group the user accounts for the role they are assigned. To remove this search drag and drop the selections anywhere below the grey space.
Another way of sorting the users is by clicking on the column header. This will sort the user accounts into ascending order on the first click and descending order on the next click. Using this method you can only sort one column at a time, wherein the first one you could sort multiple columns. A user can tell what column(s) are being sorted by the arrow on the column header. When it is an up arrow it is sorted in ascending order and down signifies a descending order sort.
- this means the account is Current.
- this means the account is Non-current.
If a user wants to add a new user, they can do this either by clicking the white page on the top left
or by right-clicking in the white space and select new.
You can also edit user accounts by right-clicking on them and select 'Edit' or by double-clicking on the user.
