Creating a User
Note: if you are using Active Directory to manage users, see Importing user groups from Active Directory. You cannot create individual user accounts in an Active Directory tenancy.
You can create a new user account in the Administration section of HotDocs Advance.
To create a new user
- In the Administration section, click Manage users.
- In the upper-right corner of the screen, click Create new user.
- Enter the following user details:
- First name (required) – the user's first name.
- Last name (required) – the user's last name.
- Email address (required) – used to e-mail a user with password reset instructions.
- Administrative roles (optional) – if appropriate, select the administrative role to assign to the user.
- Active – if disabled, users cannot log in to Advance.
- Send invitation email – by default, Advance sends e-mails to new users, inviting them to log into the site; if you do not send the e-mail now, you can re-send the user invitation e-mail later.
- Click Create.
The new user appears in the User list.
