Administrator Provisioning

In order to use adTempus, each user must have a Security Login defined in adTempus. Unlike in adTempus version 3 and earlier, members of the Administrators group are not automatically granted access to or Administrator permission in adTempus.

Creating Administrators During Installation

During installation, the Database Configuration Wizard will prompt you to specify the users who should initially be made Administrators of adTempus. Once setup completes, these users will be able to manage adTempus and add additional users.

Creating Administrators After Installation

If you are an adTempus Administrator, you can add additional Administrators through the adTempus Console as discussed in the security setup topic. If no users are able to log in to adTempus as Administrators, you can use the Administrator Provisioning tool found in the adTempus group on the Start menu to give Administrator permission to users.

Enter the name(s) of the Windows users to designate as Administrators. Include the domain name if necessary, and separate entries with semicolons or new lines. For example:

ExampleDomain\Bob; ExampleDomain\Cindy

After you click Save you must restart the adTempus service for the logins to be created.

In order to run this tool you must have permission to update the Registry on the adTempus computer.

If at least one user is still able to connect to adTempus under a login designated as an adTempus administrator or security administrator, there is no need to use the administrator provisioning tool: you can configure logins through the Security Settings window in the adTempus Console.
