Select this option to enter user ID information for Circulation users, and assign users to one or more user groups. User IDs must be set up for all Circulation users.
Note: Some user IDs, such as “admin” and “DTI”, may be pre-loaded in the system. Do not delete these user IDs.
When adding or modifying user profiles, you can automatically have Circulation create a Unix login and directory for the user. Circulation will create a file in the /app/cron/newuser directory (if it exists). The file will be named “newuser.[YYYYMMDD][hhmmss].[PID]”, where [YYYYMMDD] is the year, month and day, [hhmmss] is the hour, minute, and second, and [PID] is a Unix process ID. The file will contain the user name, system name, and requesting user (the user who added the user profile record). It will be picked up by a cron job that creates a Unix login and directory for the new user. Contact the Naviga Support Center for more information.
In character Circulation, select User Profile from the Security menu to display the User Profile Setup screen.
Select Add and complete the following fields.
USER NAME
open (8)
Enter a unique ID for this user (required). This is the name that will show up in history, and it will be used for authentication if there is no system name (see below).
FULL NAME
open (30)
Enter the user’s full name. This name will be printed on the Security report, followed by the user name in parenthesis.
SYSTEM NAME
open (80)
Optionally, enter the Windows user name for this user. If left blank, the user name will be used as the system name. As mentioned, the user name is the name that will show up in history. So, if a user is set up as follows: • User Name = firstl • System Name = first.last@domain.com The user will log in with “first.last@domain.com,” but “firstl” is the name that will appear in the history.
