Manage Users

As a Mart Administrator, you can add and delete users and reset passwords. You add users so that they can access Mart. You delete users if they are not required to access Mart. You know the type of user you want to add--a user that is authenticated by Mart, a user that is authenticated by the Windows network, or a Windows user group.

Follow these steps:

Open erwin Mart Administrator.
To add a user, follow these steps:
1. Click User Management, Add User.
2. Select one of the following options for User Type:
  Server User
  Specifies a Mart user that is authenticated by the credentials provided in Mart. This is an application level user and not a database user.
  Note: There are no database level users in erwin DM Version 9 Mart.
  Windows User
  Specifies a Mart user that is authenticated by the Windows network.
  Group User
  Specifies a Windows user group. This means that all users that are part of the selected group can access Mart.
3. Enter the user name and email address. Confirm the email address.
  Note: The user name field is displayed only for the Server User and Windows User options.
4. Select the identifier of the group that you want to add to Mart, in the Group Identifier field.
  This field is displayed only for the Group User option.
5. Click Save.
  The user account is added and an email is sent to the user.
To delete a user, select the user name and click Delete User.
Only the user account is deleted. The models and objects that the user has created are retained.
Note: You cannot delete the user that has currently logged in to the erwin Mart Administrator.
To reset multiple passwords, select all the required user names and click Reset Password.
If you have configured an SMTP server for emails, new passwords are generated and sent to the registered email address.
In the absence of an SMTP server for emails, the password is reset to the default password mentioned in the Settings page. No email is sent automatically.
Note: You can reset passwords only for server users. For Windows users and Group users, the Reset Password button is disabled. In the absence of an SMTP server for emails, if users forget their passwords, they cannot use the Forgot Password link on the Login Page. Use this option and reset the passwords manually.
To change your password, follow these steps:
1. Click the user name in the toolbar and click Change Password.
  The Change Password dialog appears.
2. Complete the Current Password, New Password, and Confirm Password fields and then click Submit.
  A confirmation message appears.

Note: A password should fulfill the following criteria:

Contains at least 1 lowercase character
Contains at least 1 uppercase character
Contains at least 1 number
Is minimum 6 characters in length
Is maximum 130 characters in length

Apart from the above criteria, special characters are optional.

Also, if you enter an incorrect password five consecutive times, your account will be locked for five minutes (300 seconds) by default.
You can change the time for which the account stays locked as follows:

From Windows Start menu, click All Programs, erwin, Mart Server 2020 R2(32-bit or 64-bit), Configure MartServer.
The erwin Mart Configuration dialog appears.
On the Mart Administrator tab, edit the value of the Account Lockout Duration (Seconds) field to an appropriate value. At the most, you can set it to 30 days (2592000 seconds).
