Adding and Editing User Profiles

Adding and Editing User Profiles

Users who do not already have user profiles available by using Microsoft Active Directory directory service as an import source must have their information entered manually by adding user profiles. Once user profiles are added or imported, you can update information by editing each user profile.

You can add new profiles using the default user profile. Editing a user profile does not change the set of properties displayed in that user profile. To do that, you must add, edit, or delete the individual profile properties from the default user profile.

Add a user profile

  1. Do one of the following:
    • On the Manage Profile Database page, click Add user profile.
    • On the View User Profiles page, click New Profile on the toolbar.
  2. Type values for the required properties and type values for any other properties you want to include for this user.
  3. On the toolbar, click Save and Close.
  4. To leave this page without adding a user profile, click Cancel and Go Back on the toolbar.

Edit a user profile

  1. On the Manage Profile Database page, click View user profiles.
  2. Click the user profile you want to edit, then click Edit.
  3. Type the new values for any properties you want to change.
  4. On the toolbar, click Save and Close.
  5. To leave this page without making changes, click Cancel and Go Back on the toolbar.
