Adding new users

The list of users of the Intellect Web Report System is available on the Users > Roles and Roles > Users of the Security tab. 

By default the Intellect Web Report System contains two users, rs and anonymous, none of which can be deleted.

The rs user in Intellect Web Report System performs the administrator functions, while anonymous is a dummy operator account. 

New users can be added to Intellect Web Report System by means of Intellect system settings only.

Adding a new user to Intellect Web Report System is performed in the following way:

1. Registration of an new user in Intellect. This procedure is described in detail in the User registration and removal section of the Intellect Administrator's Guide.
   

2. Registration of the right to use Intellect Web Report System. This procedure is described in detail in the Registration of users' rights section of the Intellect Administrator's Guide.
   

3. Assigning the right to to use Intellect Web Report System to the new user. This procedure is described in detail in the Assigning the rights and password to operators for authorization in the Intellect section of the Intellect Administrator's Guide.
   
   
   

   Note

   It is recommended to take into account the following specifics while adding a new Intellect Web Report System user by means of Intellect:

   1. The anonymous user is a dummy operator account. Once the first operator will be created with Intellect, the dummy will be replaced with the account data of the first added user.
   2. The user login in Intellect Web Report System is similar to the login assigned to the user when he is granted the right in Intellect.
   3. The username and login are subject to the same rules as the Windows login.
4. If the Windows Authorization method was selected, then do the following:
   1. Go to the <Intellect installation directory>\Modules\Wt2 and open the Web.config file for editing.

   2. Replace the following strings:

      <authentication mode="Forms">
      <forms loginUrl="~/Account/LogOn" timeout="15" cookieless="UseCookies"></forms>  
      </authentication>

      

      with the following strings:

      <authentication mode="Windows">
      </authentication>

      

   3. Save the changes in the Web.config file.

   4. Log in to Windows with the user account under which you are planning to work with the Intellect Web Report System.

   5. Restart the Cassini Service utility with the user account under which you are planning to work with the Intellect Web Report System.

      

      Note

      If it is planned to work with the Intellect Web Report System by several users, then after each authorization in Windows of another user, it is necessary to restart the Cassini Service with the required user account.

   6. As a result, when you open the Intellect Web Report System in the browser, you will be automatically logged in under the specified Windows user account.

      Note

      • If no user is added to the Intellect user rights, then by default this user is assigned the Administrator role.
      • If there is at least one user in Intellect, and this user is not the one which was used in Windows authorization, then this user will not have access to the Administration panel.
      • If there is a user in Intellect who is logged using Windows authorization, but not given access to the Intellect Web Report System, then this user will not have access to the Administration panel.

Any required number of users may be added to Intellect Web Report System in this manner.
