Watch out!
This cannot be undone.
- Click on the ellipses next to the user login and select Disable User.
- Confirm on the next warning screen that comes up.
# How do I Add or Remove Administrator Users?
Users can be added as Administrators from Security Groups. This area can be accessed only by users who belong to the Administrators security group or to a group which has the User Manager role enabled.
- From the Security Groups page, click on the Administrator Security Group
- A list of users who belong to the group will be shown on the right hand side of the page.
- New users can be added to the group by clicking on the Assign Users button.
- To remove an existing user from the group click on the triple ellipses icon beside the user name and select Unassign.
# How do I Modify User Permissions?
Users inherit permissions from the Security Groups they belong to. Security Groups define roles which have been enabled for a group. These permissions apply to all the users who belong to that group.
This area can be accessed only by users who belong to the Administrators security group or to a group which has the User Manager role enabled. See Roles & Permissions for further information.
TIP
If a user belongs to multiple groups he/she will inherit all the combined roles in DX2.
