    User Profile Section

  1. From the User Type drop-down menu, an Administrator can update the user type to one of these options:
    • Standard User: The default user type, standard users are granted access to parts of Resolver based on their memberships and permissions.
    • Administrator: This user type provides system administrative rights, and the ability to access the Admin Overview page and the Administrator Settings menu.
    • Portal URL User: This user type enables users to be assigned to Portal URLs, and the ability to authenticate access to assigned Portals.

    Note:
    The options displayed in the Account Status section and User Memberships cards will change based on the user type selected.

  1. An Administrator can edit the following toggle switches and fields under the Account Status section:
  • Enable User Access: Select the Enable User Access toggle switch to enable (blue) or disable (grey) a user profile.
  • All Data Access: Select the All Data Access toggle switch to enable (blue) or disable (grey) all access, granting the user access to all object types and objects within an organization.

    Warning:
    Resolver recommends not enabling the All Access toggle switch for new user accounts.

  • For Orgs that have multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforced:
  • Language: Select a Language preference from the dropdown menu to change the system's language setting. Before you can set an alternate language setting, an Administrator needs to download a language CSV file from the system, map language translations to the user interface text, and upload the CSV file for use within Resolver.

    Note:
    The default language setting in the user's browser will take precedence over Resolver for language translations.

Account Status Section

  1. In the User Memberships card, users will have a different view depending on which user type was selected in Step 2. Each tab in this section includes a count of how many of the designated memberships the user has.
