Overview – Create and Manage Users and Response Teams

Creating and Managing Users

Head over to Admin -> Users. This is where you select who should have access to Web ViewPoint Enterprise and its selected features.

Note: ENFORCE-SECURITY parameter needs to be set to “YES” on My NonStop for this feature to be applicable. Otherwise, all NonStop users will have access to WVP Enterprise and all its features. However, they will still be restricted to what their Guardian User ID entitle them to.

User Types

WVP E users are divided into three types:

1. Admin – Has access to all features and can perform all user maintenance and access authorization functions.
   1. First Admin user is set at initial installation.
   2. The initial Admin user can Add/Update/Delete other Admins, Managers and Staff users. An Admin can also change a Staff user into a Manager.
2. Manager – Has access to all features WVP E features but can also be restricted to specific features under the Admin category.
   1. A Manager can Add/Update/Delete Staff users only.
   2. A Manager has access to all non-Admin features of WVP E and can assign to Staff users.
3. Staff – This type of users can be restricted to specific features.
