Set up User Accounts and Permissions

After the database has been created, you can use any of the desktop applications or the ReliaSoft Admin tool to create user accounts and set access permissions. You must create an account for anyone who will be able to edit or view data in the ReliaSoft desktop applications or SEP. (User accounts for XFRACAS are managed separately.)

  • In the ReliaSoft Admin tool on the web server, click the Manage ReliaSoft Users button.
  • In the ReliaSoft desktop applications (e.g., Weibull++, XFMEA, etc.), first open the database and then choose File > Manage Database > Users and Security.

If your organization uses Microsoft Active Directory, you can save time by importing user information from the directory to create the user accounts.

For more information, consult the “Security Options” topics in the desktop application help files

After the accounts have been created, an application admin can use the SEP Admin page to specify which users can access SEP. (See SEP Admin Page in the SEP help.)
