Add users
If several people want to work in the VTS, a separate user account can be created for each person. The number of users per environment is currently not limited. Additional licenses must only be purchased if several users will be using the system simultaneously.
How to add new users
To add a new user, proceed as follows:
-
Open the user management under the menu item Users
-
Select the Add user button
-
Enter the required data for the new user: email, first name, last name, security level (see Security levels of VTS users), department if applicable (see below)
-
Automatic invitation to register by email
The new user can then register themselves via a link and will be automatically activated for the relevant environment.
For users whose registration has not yet been completed, the invitation link can also be created and sent again at any time by clicking on the user name (button Create invitation link).
Limit access for certain users
Change security levels
By calling up the user details (by clicking on the name), the assigned security level for each environment can also be adjusted retrospectively. To do this, click on the Edit field under the three-dot icon. The security level, cost center, and department can then be assigned.
Creating new users and many other settings can only be carried out by a user with the highest security level 0. It is therefore important that at least one user with security level 0 is assigned to each environment.
Change department
Besides security levels, another option for limiting access for certain users is by specifying the “department”. If users are assigned to a certain department, they will only see personal and test results data from test persons which were assigned to the same department (see Person management) or which were not assigned to any department. Users assigned to a specific department can only add new test persons which are assigned to the same department.
