Definition
The user management interface displays all the users registered for the application and allows one to manage their rights according to the different existing modules.
Some rules regarding users:
- Users can create other users if and only if they have "User management" rights.
- A user can be associated with one or more groups.
Properties
When a user is selected, several tabs are available to modify their profile and rights:
- User profile,
- Associated groups,
- Administration,
- Modules: a tab is displayed for each module available for administration.
When a new user is created, only the "User profile" tab is active. As soon as the user is created, you can access all the other tabs.
"User profile" tab

Email alerts:
- Modification of your profile: Send an email to the user when their profile is modified.

- Page alerts: Send an email to a user when an alert is signaled for a page the user is working on.
"Associated groups" tab
The list of all groups is under this tab.
For each group we can see if the user is associated (or not) with the group (the checkbox is checked or not). A filter can be used to display only the groups to which the user belongs.
It is possible to associate or disassociate the user from groups by checking or unchecking the checkboxes in front of the desired groups. The association with a group is saved immediately.
"Administration" tab
This tab is detailed in the Administration rights page.
"Modules" tab
A tab is displayed for each module available in the administration.
Thus one can always find the "Pages" tab as it is the principle module in Automne, integrated in its core. We also find the "Forms" tab because it is the model furnished during the installation of Automne.
These tabs are detailed in the Assigning rights page.
