Deleting and Editing Users
Once users are created in RTA, it may be necessary to edit user information or even delete users who no longer need access or have the left the organization. Keeping the user list accurate is a critical component to ensuring the security of your information and efficiently managing user licenses.
Editing User Information
It may be necessary to edit the users name, email address, or even update a password. See more below on these processes.
Only users with access to the corresponding Users area as part of their user group will be able to make these edits/changes. Refer to User Groups for more information.
Editing a User’s Name
Click on the Users selection under the Admin group in the main menu
Search for and select the user to be edited
Update the name as necessary
Click the check mark to save
Editing a User’s Email Address
Click on the Users selection under the Admin group in the main menu
Search for and select the user to be edited
Update the Email as necessary
Click the check mark to save
Resetting a User’s Password
Click on the Users selection under the Admin group in the main menu
Search for and select the user to be edited
Click Update Password
Update the Password as necessary
Click Confirm
It’s a good practice to then have the user update the password after the reset. Refer users to Password Resets
Forcing a Password Reset
Admins can require or force a password reset for one or multiple users by visiting the User Search List accessed by clicking Users under the Admin section in the menu.
From the User Search list, click on the menu options (3 dots) in the upper right corner
Click on Force Password Reset
Select users to force the reset by clicking the selection boxes next to users or selecting all users
Users will then be forced to update their password
Where a User’s Access Is Managed
To change a user’s permissions in Fleet360, change the user groups assigned to that user. Permissions are granted by user groups, not by the user’s own profile or personal Settings.
A user’s access (which areas and actions they can use) is controlled by the user groups (roles) assigned to that user, not by their personal profile settings. Access is managed on the Users screen: from the main menu, select Users under the Admin group, search for and open the user, then select the Groups tab. The user groups that grant the user permissions are listed in the Assigned User Groups panel. See the Edit User Groups section below to add or remove them.
A user’s access is separate from their personal Settings, which are opened by clicking the user’s name at the top of the main menu. Personal Settings control individual preferences such as password, theme, language, the default facility for grids, and printer setup, and do not grant access to areas of the software. Managing another user’s access requires administrator permissions.
Edit User Groups (Change a User’s Permissions)
Click on the Users selection under the Admin group in the main menu
Search for and select the user to be edited
Click the Groups tab
Click Manage in the Assigned User Groups panel (the panel can be viewed By Facility or By Group)
To give the user a new group, click the + at the top of the table, select the user group, and select the facility, region or Company-Wide it applies to, then check the box
To take a group away, uncheck its box for that facility or region
Click Update (the Manage button changes to Update while you are editing) and confirm. Unchecked facilities and groups are removed from the list.
Have the user log out and back in for the change to take effect
There is no “Access” tab. The user screen has General, Groups, Facility, Notifications, Certificates, Custom Fields and Attachments tabs; a user’s permissions are on the Groups tab in the Assigned User Groups panel. The Manage button only appears for users who have the Edit Existing Custom User Groups permission (Admin > User Group > User Group Maintenance). The License field at the top of the user record is separate: the license type decides what kind of user they are (for example a full user or a technician), while what they can do within that license comes from their user groups. To change what a custom group itself can do, see User Group Maintenance.
Editing a User PIN
Click on the Users selection under the Admin group in the main menu
Search for and select the user to be edited
Click Change Pin
Enter new pin for user
Click Save
Refer to Creating New Users for detailed information on the Assigned User Groups Panel.
Deleting Users
Click on the Users selection under the Admin group in the main menu
Search for and select the user to be edited
Click the appropriate option at the top
Disable will disable access until enabled but keep the user information intact
Delete will remove access and the user profile from the system
A user can also be removed from one or more user groups without deleting their entire profile by accessing the User Group section. Refer to User Groups for instructions on how to do this.
