Adding Users
1. Click on the 
button at the top right of the interface.
2. Fill in the following mandatory fields. The mandatory fields are shown with a red bordered text box.
- First Name - The first name of the user.
- Last Name - The last name of the user.
- User - An individual/person who users or operates functions within Zephyr.
- Role - A category used to give specific permissions to users in the system. These permissions give users the access to applications in Zephyr and the ability to perform certain tasks throughout the system. One or multiple roles can be selected for an individual user. There will be default roles in the system that can be selected, or you can utilize customized roles. Customized roles can be setup in the Customizations page under System Setup. Some of the default roles are:
- Lead - Can have multiple leads per department, responsible for entire projects/releases
- Tester - Can have multiple testers per department, assigned to projects
- Dashboard - Can have multiple dashboard users. Users only have access to the dashboards of the projects they are allocated to and these users do not count towards the total license count
- Manager - Only 1 per department, essentially a manager/administrator
- Email - The email address of the user.
- Location - The location of the workplace for the user in the system.
There are plenty of optional fields such fields for the user's address, their work, mobile and home phone numbers, and fields to distinguish their business title and employee type. These fields are not necessary and are there for convenience.
- Images can be added as a resource. (JPG, GIF, and PNG that do not exceed the 2MB size limit)
Note
The default username for a new user will always be their First Name and Last Name. You have the option to select the checkbox to customize their username if you wish to do so as well.
3. After filling in all the mandatory fields, click on the "Save" Button to create the user in the system.
