On the General tab, enter the values in the following fields. All information, aside from the username, will only be visible to the administrator and the specific user.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| User Information | |

| First Name | The first name of the user. This is visible only to the user and to administrators. |
| Last Name | The last name of the user. This is visible only to the user and to administrators. |
| New Password | The user's password. If no change is to be made to the user's password, leave this field blank. |
| Confirm new Password | Re-enter the user's password here to confirm the value. |

| Roles A FireDaemon Fusion user account can be assigned either Administrator-level or User-level privileges. | |
| Administrator | Administrators have full access to FireDaemon Fusion and the systems on the network running Fusion. An Administrator has access to all FireDaemon Fusion functions:
|
| User | A user-level account has its roles assigned by an administrator. A user account must have access to at least one function. A user's access privileges determine which tabs are visible to a user after login. For example, a user with the View Quick Stats and Manage FireDaemon Services access privileges will only be able to see those two tabs in the FireDaemon Fusion user interface. They will not be able to see the tabs for managing system services, shutting down or restarting a computer, or browsing folders. |
Administrator accounts are done at this point, as they will have access to all FireDaemon and System Service functions. Click Apply and Close to save the administrator account.
For User accounts, click the FireDaemon Services tab, and select the required permissions for the existing FireDaemon services.
If the user has the Manage FireDaemon Services permission, Assign All will automatically be selected. However, you can set whether this user has the right to view, edit, start, or stop each service. Or you can click Assign None to clear the board and make selections. If the goal is to not allow them access to do anything to FireDaemon Services, remove that permission on the General tab.
If the user does not have the Manage FireDaemon Services permission, no changes will be able to made to this tab.
Click the System Services tab and select the required permissions for the configured Windows System services.
If the user has the Manage System Services permission, Assign All will automatically be selected. However, you can set whether this user has the right to view, edit, start, or stop each service. Or you can click Assign None to clear the board and make selections. If the goal is to not allow them access to do anything to System Services, remove that permission on the General tab.
If the user does not have the Manage System Services permission, no changes will be able to made to this tab.
After configuring all the required settings for the new user, click the Apply and Close button on the toolbar.

The user details page appears. The fields on this page are the same as the Add a New User page described above - see Adding a New User.
Edit the field values as required and click the Apply and Close button on the toolbar.
Deleting a User
On the Manage Users page, click the user that is to be deleted.
On the toolbar, click the Delete Selected Users button. Alternatively, you can hover the mouse pointer on the user entry and click the Delete User button.
In the confirmation message dialog box, click the OK button. The selected user is then deleted from FireDaemon Fusion.
