Copying Users

You use the Users module to copy an existing user profile. If you need to add a new user profile for a user whose profile closely resembles an existing user profile, you can copy the existing user profile, make the necessary changes to the profile information, and save the profile as the profile for a new user.

To copy a user

1. In Users, click Users.
   
   
2. In the Users screen, select the user profile you want to copy, and then click on the toolbar.
   
   
3. In the New User: Copy <user> properties screen, in the General information section, do the following:

   Use this	To do this
   Logon name	Type a logon name for the new user profile.
   User password	Type a password for the new user profile. Passwords must contain 7 to 14 alphanumeric characters. Passwords cannot contain spaces.

   
   
4. Change the existing information in the copied user profile as appropriate for the new user profile.
   
   
5. To save the new user profile and return to the Users screen, click on the toolbar.

The new user profile is saved.
