How do I set up a new user?

There are three things to do:

  1. The user’s computer will need the FileMaker software installed if it is not already there.  If you need to purchase an additional FileMaker license, contact your PeopleWerksHR support person.
  2. In the User Management area of PeopleWerksHR, you need to change the user’s access level to the required group, make sure that the System ID is correct for the login, and make any changes needed to the detail permissions.
  3. Let your tech person know to set the user up in the Active Directory with the same Access Level.  The System ID and the Access Level in PeopleWerksHR must match the data set up in the Active Directory.  If not, the user will receive an error message upon logging in.
