Creating a New User in JDE

MIS Department Policy & Procedure 

Changing a User Password or Creating a User

There are three applications associated with a user in JDE.  They are:  User Profiles, User Security, and Administrative Password Revisions.

For a user to log onto the system they need:

1)         A User Profile  -  User Profiles Application

2)         Valid User Security  -  User Security Application

3)         A Valid Password  -  Administrative Password Revisions Application

4)         Role Security - Work with Role Relationships

If a user has forgot their password or you need to create a new user, use these three applications in order to verify that their account is correctly setup.  To troubleshoot a user password start with the Administrative Password Revisions application and work backwards.  This is the easiest and most successful method.

When creating a user account you must start with the User Profile application and move down the list.

User Profile (Fastpath:  GH9011)

1)         Verify that there is a user profile for this user.  If not follow these steps:

a.   Find a user from the target user group (i.e. To create another MIS user find a MISMIS group user and highlight the user)

b.   Select the “Copy” option at the top of the screen.

c.   Type the desired user name in the User ID field.

d.   Assign the appropriate Address Book number for the new user.

e.   Click “OK”

2)         Compare the properties of the profile to another user in the same group.

a.   You can do a print screen of the target user and compare the print screen to another member of the same group.

User Security (NEW Fastpath:  P98LPSEC) [Old - GH9052]

1)         Find the target user and verify they have user security assigned to them.

  If they do not have any user security assigned follow these steps:

a.   Find a user who is a member of the same user group.

b.   Highlight the user security on the right and choose “Copy” from the menu at the top of the screen.

c.   Type the target user name and press “OK”.

     Administrative Password Revisions (NEW Fastpath: p98lpsec) [Old GH9052]

1) Type the user ID into the first field

2) Type the desired password into the second field

3) Type the password again into the third field to verify it is correct.

4) Check the box for Security Future Use 3.  (this forces the user to change their password)

Work With Role Relationships (Fastpath: P95921)

1)  Find the User ID in the first field

2)  Find the appropriate role in the available roles column on the right side

3)  Add the role to the assigned roles
