(v23) Create and Add Additional Tenant Admin Users

Create and Add Additional Tenant Admin Users

When you create a new tenant in Symphony, you're creating an isolated work area for specific clients, departments, or lines of business. After creating the tenant, you'll need to define one or more Admin users to manage the tenant resources. After a system administrator creates the first admin user for the tenant, they can create additional users as tenant admins, or add existing users to the Administrators group.

Create Admin Users for a Tenant

If you didn't create a tenant admin when you created your tenant, you can add the first admin as the admin user (System Administrator) at any time.

Create the first admin user for your new tenant as a system admin

After you've created your tenant, create at least one admin user for the new tenant.

1. Log in as the supplied admin user (System Administrator).

2. Select Users from the main menu on the Symphony home page. The Users work area opens.

3. Select Create. A Create user pop up window opens.

   

4. Supply values for the User name, Full name, Email, and Password. Select your new Tenant from the drop-down list.

   Note: The default Tenant is Global User, and cannot be changed if no other tenants exist.

5. Enable Make user an admin to make this user the admin of your selected tenant, or of Symphony if no tenant is selected.

6. Select Create user. A success message is displayed, and the admin user is added to Symphony for your selected tenant.

Note: You may not see a user you've created or added until after they log in for the first time.

Create the additional admin users for your new tenant as a tenant admin

As admin for a tenant, you can create other admin user accounts for the tenant.

1. Log in as a tenant admin.

2. Select Users from the main menu on the Symphony home page. The Users work area opens.

3. Select Create. A Create user pop up window opens.

   

4. Supply values for the User name, Full name, Email, and Password. Then tenant you're working in is the tenant the admin is assigned to.

5. Enable Make user an admin to make this user the admin of your tenant.

6. Select Create user. A success message is displayed, and the admin user is added to Symphony for your tenant.

Note: You may not see a user you've created or added until after they log in for the first time.

Add Existing Users as Additional Admins for a Tenant

Add additional administrative users for a tenant either as the tenant admin or as an admin user (System Administrator or member of the Administrator's group for Symphony).

Add existing users as admin users for your tenant as a system admin

1. Log in as an admin user or other Symphony system administrator.

2. Navigate to Visual Data Discovery, then select Tools > System Users from the menu. The Manage Users work area opens, which lists all system users.

3. Select Create. A Create user work area opens.

4. Supply values for the User name, Full name, Email, and Password.

   • If you are a tenant admin, this user is automatically assigned to this tenant as a member of the admin group.

   • If you are a system admin, select the appropriate Tenant from the drop-down list.

5. Enable Make user an admin to make this user the admin of your selected tenant.

6. Select Create user. A success message is displayed, and the admin user is added to Symphony for your selected tenant.

Note: You may not see a user you've created or added until after they log in for the first time.
