Adding users to your operation

REQUIREMENTS
Permission	Operation Administrator or higher
Connectivity	Online only

This page describes how to add a user to your operation.

Background

The InfoEx system has four types of users with increasing permission levels:

User: Can enter observations and view InfoEx reports
Observation moderator: Can submit observations to the InfoEx and execute workflows
Operation administrator: Can modify location catalog, define InfoEx report templates and workflows, add and remove users from operation
Super user (CAA only): Can administer the InfoEx and create new operations

Operation Administrators or Super Users are the only user types that can add, edit or delete users from a subscriber operation. See Description of user levels for a detailed description of the functionality accessible to the different user levels.

Step-by-step description

1.	Fig. 1: Administration menu for operation administrator Select 'Manage Users' from the administration menu (cog wheel) in the top left corner of the screen (Fig. 1).
2.	Fig. 2: User management screen of InfoEx application This will get you to the user management section of the InfoEx application (Fig. 2). This section consists of a simple table that list all of the users associated with your operation. The columns of the table are: email address/username first name last name permission level
3.	Fig. 3: Popup window for adding a user to an operation To add a new user to your operation, click on at the top left corner of the user table. This will open a new popup window(Fig. 3). This window allows you to add users that already exists in the CAA InfoEx user database or create new users and add them to your operation with the appropriate user levels.
4.	Fig. 4: Popup window for adding a user with list of existing users. First user is highlighted. Enter the first name or last name of the individual you would like to add to your operation into the text field and click on Find. This will search the user database and return a list of existing users with the particular first or last name (Fig. 4).
5.	If you found the person you would like to add to your operation, select the person by clicking on it (the row will turn slightly yellow; see Fig. 4), select the appropriate permission level from the dropdown list at the top of the popup window and click Add at the bottom right of the popup window. This will close the popup window and the new user will be added to the user table of our operation.
