Deactivate an account

When you want to prevent an end user from working with CPWS (for instance, because you want to delete
the user in the near future and want to prevent him or her from accessing the data), you can deactivate
that user.
When you deactivate a user, the user account is not deleted, but made inactive. The user can no longer
access CPWS.

user account still exists.

Make active

If you use database authentication, enter a new password for the user. The
user is reactivated immediately.

Delete an account

You can delete a user only when there are no tests in the database that were recorded or interpreted by
that user. Since most users have recorded tests, this normally means that you cannot delete a user. In
such cases you need to de-activate the user. An inactive user cannot work with CPWS.

1. Click the Users icon

.

2. Click the Search button.

custom role from the drop-down box.

Set up a password

When you use database authentication, you can reset a user password with a new password. You can
use this function, for example, when end users have forgotten their password.
