The Users section is used to create and edit Klaros-Testmanagement user accounts.

The Maintain Users page gives the user an overview of the user accounts in Klaros-Testmanagement. The accounts can be created, enabled, disabled and edited here. ( Figure 10.5). Only users with an Administrator role can edit all accounts, others are only able to edit their own account settings.

User accounts can be viewed on a printer-friendly page as described in Section 5.2.7, “Print Pages”.

10.3.1. Creating a User

Clicking the New button creates a new user account ( Figure 10.5). The User Name, Full Name, E-Mail Address and Role attributes can be set here directly. When the Save button is clicked, a dialog will appear for each new user account to set the Password and System Account flag ( Figure 10.6). Per default users of role Administrator or Manager are able to create new user accounts. Users of role Manager can only create accounts of role Tester or Guest.

	Limit account creation to administrators
	If a more stringent approach is desired, the Only Administrators can create Users setting can be used to limit user creation to the administrator role. See Section 10.4.1, “Miscellaneous Settings” for more information.
