About user accounts
FindMe user accounts must be created by a VCS administrator
before they can be accessed and configured by users.
Each user account is accessed using a username and password
associated with a specific FindMe name.
Creating a new user account
To create a new FindMe user account:
Go to
1.
Applications > FindMe > User accounts
.
You will be taken to the
User accounts
page.
Select
2.
New
.
You will be taken to the
Create user account
page.
The options available are:
Username
The name of the user for whom you are creating an account.
This is the name they will use to log in to configure their FindMe
options.
FindMe name
The alias by which the FindMe user can be contacted.
The FindMe name can be any string of up to 60 characters.
However, not all endpoints are able to dial aliases with spaces or
other non-alphanumeric characters so we recommend that these
are not used in your FindMe names.
Initial contact address
The address or alias of an endpoint on which this user can be
contacted initially. You must provide details of at least one
device when setting up the account. Once the account has been
saved, the user can add and remove endpoints themselves.
Initial password
The password to be used, along with the
Username
, when logging
into this account.
Users will be able to change the password for their account once
they have logged in.
Confirm password
Retype the password.
Viewing existing user account settings
To view the configuration of an existing user account:
Go to
1.
Applications > FindMe > User accounts
.
You will be taken to the
User accounts
page.
Click on the user account whose information you wish to view.
2.
You will be taken to the
Edit user account
page.
This page shows you the current configuration for the user. As
the administrator you cannot change the configuration; this can
only be changed by logging in to the user account. However, as
an administrator you can change the password, or delete all the
devices that have been configured, thus disabling the account.
Changing a user password
You can change a password on behalf of a user without knowing
their existing password. This is useful when the user has
forgotten their password.
To change the password:
Go to
1.
Applications > FindMe > User accounts
.
You will be taken to the
User accounts
page.
Click on the user account whose password you wish to change.
2.
You will be taken to the
Edit user account
page.
In the
3.
New password
and
Confirm password
fields, enter the
new password to be used when logging into this account.
Select
4.
Change password
.
Disabling a user account
Administrators can delete all the devices that have been
configured for a particular FindMe user. This will have the effect
that any calls to that FindMe name will be rejected until one or
more devices are reconfigured for that account. To do this:
Go to
1.
Applications > FindMe > User accounts
.
You will be taken to the
User accounts
page.
Click on the user account you wish to disable.
2.
You will be taken to the
Edit user account
page.
Select
3.
Restore to default
.
The
FindMe Configuration
section will show
No devices configured
for all devices.
Deleting a user account
To delete a FindMe user account:
Go to
1.
Applications > FindMe > User accounts
.
You will be taken to the
User accounts
page.

•

click on
•
Select All
if you wish to delete all the accounts.
Click
3.
Delete
.
A confirmation window will appear to ensure that you wish to
proceed.
