Add new users

The list of users of the WEB Report System PSIM is available on the Users > roles and Roles > users tabs on the Security tab. 

By default the WEB Report System PSIM contains two users, rs and anonymous. You cannot delete them.

The rs user in the WEB Report System PSIM performs the administrator functions, while anonymous is a template for the operator account.

You can add new users to the WEB Report System PSIM by means of Axxon PSIM system settings only.

To add a new user to the WEB Report System PSIM:

1. Register a new user in Axxon PSIM. This procedure is described in detail in User registration and removal.
   

2. Register the right to use the WEB Report System PSIM. This procedure is described in detail in Registration of users' rights.
   

3. Assign the right to use the WEB Report System PSIM to the new user. This procedure is described in detail in Assigning rights and password to operators for authorization in Axxon PSIM.
   
   
   

   Note

   Take into account the following specifics when you add a new user to the WEB Report System PSIM by means of Axxon PSIM:

   1. The anonymous user is a template for the operator account. Once the first operator is created in Axxon PSIM, the template is replaced with the account data of the first added user.
   2. The username in the WEB Report System PSIM is the user login specified when you add the user to user rights in Axxon PSIM.
   3. The username (and login) are subject to the same rules as the Windows login.
4. If you select the Windows Authorization method:
   1. Go to the <Axxon PSIM 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 plan to work with the WEB Report System PSIM.

   5. Restart the Cassini Service with the user account under which you plan to work with the WEB Report System PSIM.

      

      Note

      If you plan to work with the WEB Report System PSIM with 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 WEB Report System PSIM in the browser, you are automatically logged in under the specified Windows user account.

      Note

      If no user is added to the Axxon PSIM user rights, then by default this user is assigned the Administrator role.

      If there is at least one user in Axxon PSIM, and this user is not the one that was used in Windows authorization, then this user will not have access to the administration panel.

      If there is a user in Axxon PSIM who is logged in using Windows authorization but not given access to the WEB Report System PSIM, then this user will not have access to the administration panel.

Any required number of users can be added to the WEB Report System PSIM.
