Setting up your Well Data Labs team? Follow the steps below to add new users.
From any window:
Select the Gear/User Name drop-down located on the upper right-hand corner of any page in the application. Select Manage Users.
From Manage Users select the New User button on the top right.
Enter the Name, Email, Phone and City/State for the New User. The Password can either be set to never expire or it can be set to expire every xxx days.
Next, select the Role and Access for the user. Notice the Access grid in the middle of the New User page. This is where the User Role, Access settings, and whether or not the user will have the ability to Load Data, Download Data, Manage Users, or Manage Picklists is set.
Well Data Labs gives you the ability to set up many roles and access settings:
1. No Access - the user has an account but does not have access to WDL and will not be able to log in.
2. View Only - the user will be able to view the data and can print PDF files but will not be able to add or make changes to any of the data. The View access can be set by selecting one of the options in the "Set Access By" drop-down.
For the View Only user, the Load Data, Download Data, Manage Users and Manage Picklists check boxes will remain grayed out when any option in the "Set Access By" drop-down is selected.
When the User access is set to access jobs for selected operators, selected asset groups, selected service companies or selected jobs from the Set Access By drop-down, a list of what is available for each of those options is displayed. For example, if you select "User can access jobs for the selected operators", a list of those Operators will display and can be selected by clicking on the desired check box in the list to grant access to that operator. When you are finished, click Add User.
3. User - select the User Role radio button and Set Access By from the drop-down. Notice that the Load Data check box is automatically checked. If the User will be able to Download Data or Manage Users, check those boxes as well. If the User access is set to accessing jobs for selected operators, selected asset groups, selected service companies or selected jobs, click on the desired check boxes in the list to grant access. Click Add User.
4. Admin - user has access to everything including the ability to Manage Users. Click on the Admin radio button and select Add User.
Once you have added a user, a popup will confirm that the account was created. The user will receive an email allowing them to activate their account.
Click on "Back to Manage Users" and you will see where the user has been added to the Users list.
