Defining user names

Users must have a RICOH ProcessDirector user name to access the system and to do RICOH ProcessDirector actions.

If the Security feature is installed and Authentication with LDAP is enabled, user names are set up using LDAP, not RICOH ProcessDirector.

In this section:

  1. Adding users
    You can create user names for each person who uses RICOH ProcessDirector. These user names are separate from Linux or Windows user names.
  2. Copying a user
    You can copy a user so you can use it as a template for creating another user. Copying users can save you time, especially when you need to create several users with similar properties.
  3. Changing group membership for a user
    You can change the group membership for users when their RICOH ProcessDirector tasks and actions change.
