Depending upon your access permissions, you may need to ask a Database administrator to do this for you, but to create a new operator:
Once you've done this, to create a new operator:
Click Master System then select Operator Details Menu.
Select Operator Maintenance.
To open a new record, either press CTRL+I keys or, on the upper toolbar, click the modify icon. The fields required in the Operator Maintenance screen are as follows:
Operator Reference | This is the code which the user uses to log in to Access Pay & Bill which can be up to 10 characters in length. |
Operator Title/Forename/Surname/Job Title | Enter these fields relevant to the person you're creating the operator for. It's advisable to always complete the Forename and Surname fields. |
Multiple Logging | If this is set to Yes, the operators are then able to log into Access Pay & Bill more than once at the same time.
The licence used in Access Pay & Bill defines the number of current users who can be logged on at any point; therefore, it is advisable to only allow a few users to have multiple logins. |
Usage Logging | If this is set to yes, Access Pay & Bill creates a basic audit trail of the programs the user has used. Usage Logging must be set to yes to activate this operator for auditing. |
Screen Access Mode | This is the default screen type that the user sees (this depends on the screen mode, i.e. whether the screen can be accessed in both Screen and Line Mode).
The options for this field are either screen or line. It is advisable to set this to Screen Mode for ease of use. |
Flip Field on Input: Screen Mode | If the field is set to yes, then if you're in line mode and change the data, the window automatically flips to screen mode. |
Flip Field on Input: Line Mode | If the field is set to yes, then if you're in screen mode and change the data, the window automatically flips to line mode. |
Display Buttons | This would normally be set to yes so that the buttons can be seen at the bottom of screens and therefore used by the operator. |
Confirm Box Default | You would normally set this field to no. This means that whenever you have a confirm box, it's automatically set to no.
This means that you can't perform any actions by mistake and you therefore have to manually change it to yes each time. |
Confirm Print Destination | You would normally set this field to yes. This means that whenever a print is sent to a printer, the printer has to be selected before the print is sent to the printer. |
Allow Alarm/Allow Mail | These fields should be set to no as the functionality is no longer used in Access Pay & Bill. |
Must Enter Password | This field should be set to yes to force the user to enter a password. |
Password | To enter a password in this field you must change from create mode to modify mode therefore press CTRL+M keys or click the icon, and then zoom (press F5) in the field. |
