Create users. Sage 2015

5 | Setting up Sage 200 to use for the first time

Create users

When you have created the configuration database, the

Manage User Lists

window appears. This displays all the Windows User accounts that are members of the

Sage 200 Users

and

Sage 200

Administrators

groups that were specified during the installation.

Users access Sage 200 and Sage 200 System Administration using their Windows User account.

The first time you install Sage 200, all the Windows User accounts will have a status of

New

.

For an existing installation of Sage 200, you can match the Windows User accounts to existing

Sage 200 user accounts. See Upgrading to Sage 200 v2011 on page 1 for more information.

To create your Sage 200 user accounts

1. Check the list of Users on the

Manage User Lists

screen.

2. To create a new Sage 200 user account for all the Windows User accounts with a status of

New

, click

OK

.

New Sage 200 user accounts are created.

You can also use this screen, at any time, to update your Sage 200 user list. For example, if you add or delete windows users in future, this screen is displayed when you open Sage 200 System

Administration. Use this screen to link users again and ensure that only those users who should do so, can access Sage 200.

Note:

When you delete a Windows user account, the user will still be able to use Sage 200 until you refresh the user list, by using the

Manage User Lists

screen.
