Create One New User
This article explains how to create one new user account with the Add New People Wizard.
Open the Add New People Wizard
- From the Administrator Console Navigation Bar, go to Wizards > Add New Person.
- Select Create one user.
- Click Next.
Choose how to create the user
- Create a new record with information I will enter: Start with a blank user record.
- Start with the following person’s information: Start with information from an existing user. This is helpful when the new user has the same or similar supervisor and domain values as someone already in the LMS. You can change any pre-populated fields before creating the account.
Enter required account information
Complete the required user account fields. Required fields may vary slightly depending on your system configuration.
| Field | Description |
| User Name | Required. Must be unique. The LMS will not allow duplicate user names. |
| Password | Required. |
| First Name | Required. |
| Last Name | Required. |
| Employee ID | Required. Must be unique. The LMS will not allow duplicate Employee IDs. |
| Email Address | May be required depending on your system configuration. |
| Culture | Only shown in globalized systems. Defaults to English unless the new user is based on another user’s information. |
| Currency | Only shown in globalized systems. Defaults to U.S. Dollar unless the new user is based on another user’s information. |
| Supervisor | Required. This is the user’s manager field. |
Enter optional information
On the next screen, enter any optional information that applies to the user, such as title, phone number, mailing address, city, state or province, zip or postal code, and country. You can leave these fields blank if they do not apply.
Select domain values
Select the domain values that apply to the user. Domain names and requirements vary by system, but all domain fields shown in the wizard are required.
If the new account is based on another user’s information, the LMS will pre-populate the domain fields. You can change those values before creating the account.
Note: If a user is added to a parent domain level, the user is not automatically added to any child domain levels.
Click Next to create the new user account and complete the wizard.
