Adding user types

By organizing your users into user types, you determine what WorldServer features they can have access to and what types of tasks they can perform in the system.

About this task

WorldServer allows for an unlimited number of TransPort users. License verification is based on the users who belong to user types with TransPort-related permissions. If you assign to a user type any permissions that are not related to TransPort, these users will count against your WorldServer licenses.

Procedure

  1. In WorldServer, go to Management > User Setup > User Types.
  2. Select Add.
  3. On the User Type: New User Type page, do the following:
    1. In the Name box, enter the name of the user type that you want to add.
    2. In the Description box, enter the description of the user type.
    3. Next to Options, select the check boxes corresponding to the permissions you want to assign to the user type.
  4. Select Save or Save as New.
