Disabling/Enabling Users (Admin Only)
To restrict access to DW Spectrum it is possible to make User inactive. Contrary to deleting User this method allows
keeping all User action records (see "Viewing Users' Actions Log (Audit Trail)").
To disable User(s), do one of the following:
 Open User and Roles Management Form, select user(s) to disable and click Disable Selected. This method is useful
when it's necessary to delete several Users simultaneously.
 Go to user settings (see "Changing User Settings") and clear the Enabled flag, then click OK.
To enable User(s) back, do the opposite.
Deleting User (Admin Only)
It is possible to delete any User, except Super Administrator. A User cannot delete own profile. To delete, do one of
the following:
 Open User and Roles Management Form, select user(s) to delete and click Delete Selected. This method is useful
when it's necessary to delete several Users simultaneously.
 locate the desired User in Resource Tree, Right-Click for Context Menu and choose Delete (or press DEL).
Also it is recommended to disable User instead of deleting him (see "Disabling/Enabling Users (Admin Only)"). This
method helps to keep the user's action history (refer to "Viewing Users' Actions Log (Audit Trail)").
IMPORTANT. All associated Layouts will automatically be deleted along with the User. If Layout is assigned to
another User, it will remain in System.
