Creating and Configuring User Accounts

Other Related Topics...

Manually creating new FaxPress Enterprise users involves using existing user accounts as templates. New users can be manually added either by copying the parameters of a user account you’ve already created, or by using one of three default, existing Enterprise accounts that will be listed in the Users & Groups>Users folder the first time you log into FaxPress Plus as Administrator and expand the Administration folder.

Default Enterprise User Accounts

Three default Enterprise accounts – Guest, Unaddressed, and Administrator – will appear in the Users & Groups>Users folder the first time you log into FaxPress Plus as Administrator and expand the Administration folder.

The Guest account is, by default, configured with User privileges; the Unaddressed account is, by default, configured with Operator privileges; the Administrator account is, by default, configured with Administrator privileges. These accounts can be used as templates for adding new users. The default passwords for these accounts are blank.

Until the Enterprise is configured for automatic inbound routing, (see Automatic Routing and PBX System Integration), all inbound faxes will be sent to the Unaddressed mailbox. Faxes in the Unaddressed mailbox can be routed directly to recipients by users with router privileges.

Adding New Users

To manually create a new Enterprise user from an existing user account, and access the User Properties settings, follow these steps:

To create new users by importing users from existing Active Directory, Microsoft Exchange, or Novell network database groups, see Importing and Mapping Users .

It’s most efficent to create and configure one user, then base all other new users on that account. This means you’ll only have to set up each user’s individual settings (printer configuration, for example) once, rather than for each new user.
