Master Login
When you create a new Dashboard login, the login account inherits the Spector 360 Dashboard default settings, or profile. The Dashboard allows you to Copy a login and apply the profile to a New User or to one or more Existing Users. Profile settings include:
Criteria and content for each chart, report, and data form
Any custom charts, reports or data forms that have been created
Any custom folders
Global criteria settings
Any created groups of users, computers, programs, or domains
For example, using a Master login Admin1, you can:
Define user groups based on departments
Set up "greenlist" and "blacklist" domain groups
Create a Productivity chart for each department
Change the settings on various reports
Set criteria for Quick View Productivity charts to "Previous Month"
Create a new form with custom Data Grouping for Network Events in Data Explorer
Add a "Confidential" watermark to all Security reports
Admin1 will be your template. Simply Copy the Admin1 login to create new Dashboard logins, modifying each login to have Standard login permission with limited access to users. Each login, however, will inherit the same user groups, the same domain groups, the same global criteria settings, and the same customized charts and reports through the profile.
