Setting Up Users in Security

Users are individuals who use the Vantagepoint product. When you implement security, you must create a user record and username for each individual who will use Vantagepoint.

You can create new user records in any of the following ways in Settings > Security > Users:

• Use the Generate Users action in to create multiple user records and associate usernames with employee records already entered in the Employees hub. This is the recommended method for creating users because you can create usernames, assign users to a role, and generate passwords all at one time.
• Use the New User action to create new user records for people who do not have employee records in the Employees hub.
• Use the Copy action to copy an existing user's record, modify the record, and save changes. When you copy a user record, the new user record automatically inherits the first user's access rights and privileges, including record level security.
