Master Login
The Management tool allows you to add a new user to the Spector 360 Database. If you know the exact user name and domain (or computer for a local login account), you can set up users and user groups in the Dashboard before any user data has been collected through recording. This may be useful in preparing to use Spector 360, or when new employees haven't started yet. When actual, recorded data is imported to the database for the users, it will be stored at the correct database location—if the user login information is correct.

Adding a user in Users Management does NOT set up monitoring of the user. Computer monitoring is controlled through the Spector 360 Control Center. |
To add a new user to Dashboard:
Select Management > Users in the navigation pane.
Right-click anywhere in the right pane
and select New, or click New on the toolbar. The New User box
appears.
Type the Display
Name.
The Display Name is by the Dashboard for User Explorer and in criteria
selection. It does not have to match another name on the system. You can
change any user's display name at any time. Enter up to 50 characters.
By default, users are listed alphabetically by the display name.
Type the User
Name.
The User Name is the account user name known the network. The user
logs in to his/her computer and in to the network using this name. This
name must exactly match the network user name.
Note: The Login Name is automatically supplied from your User Name and Domain/Computer Name entries.
Use the drop-down arrow to select
the Login Type.
Local - The user logs in locally to the computer being used.
Network - The user logs into the computer and into a domain
network.
For a Local Login Type, select the Computer Name from the drop-down list. The computer must already be detected in the data or defined in the Dashboard (see Managing Computers).
For a Network Login type, select the Domain where the user will log in from the drop-down list. The list contains domains known to the Dashboard. You can type in a new name, but make sure it is a valid domain on your network.
Click OK to add the user. The new user appears in the list of users in the right pane.
