Maintain Users

The Administration/Maintain Users menu option is used to create new users, edit existing users, delete/restore users, and assign users to a role. To access this area, your userid must be assigned the role of Manager.

 

IQS is distributed with a user called “IQSweb.” This user has been given Manager privileges. You can sign into IQS initially as IQSweb and set up new users.  You will be prompted to change the IQSweb password when you log into IQSweb for the first time.

 

Username and passwords are case sensitive. The username can be a maximum of 20 characters and allows no special characters except spaces and underscores.  The password must be 8 to 12 characters long and must contain at least a character from each of the following types:  upper case letter, lower case letter, number and symbol (!, @, $, &, _)

 

NOTE:  The password reset should only be used by the IQS manager if a person has forgotten their password or been locked out of their profile.  Otherwise the individual can change their password from within the tools menu by clicking on Change Password..
