Adding Administrators

The Manage Users screen has two areas. In the upper part of the screen you find departmental administrator lists.

Administrators

Administrator list

Department

The list shows all departments in which you are an administrator. The selected department is highlighted. If you are an administrator in a single department, only that department is preselected.

Administrator list

The list is ordered alphabetically by BU login. The administrator's full name is displayed next to the BU login. Each item in the list has a Remove link that allows you to remove the name from the list.

Remove

Removing a name by clicking the Remove link next to their name. This takes effect immediately. If you remove a name by mistake you can add it again. Be careful not to remove yourself from the list. After you remove yourself you will not have the necessary privileges to access the selected department. You'll either need to have one of your fellow administrators add you back or contact Networked Information Services to add you back. All entries in the list are unique; the system prevents double entries.

Add administrator

Type the BU login of the person you want to add and click the Add Administrator button. The FAQ Admin system will verify if the entered login is a valid BU login. The input field is case insensitive. If the entered login is not a valid choice, an error message is displayed below the input box. Adding a user to the list grants instant access to the FAQ Admin system.
