New/Edit User
This screen allows Powertech Multi-Factor Authentication administrators to edit the properties of a user enrolled in the authentication manager. There is some overlap with some of the features provided by the self service portal for the user to edit their own profile. The administrator is able to edit some details that the user can't edit, though (and vice versa). The administrator is able to:
- Add/Edit/Remove IBM i profiles assigned to the user
- Add/Remove devices registered by the user
How to Get There
To add a new User, in the Navigation Pane, choose Users, then click Add > Add User.
To edit an existing user, in the Users screen, double-click a user, or, click for a User and choose Edit.

- Disabled. Choose Disabled to turn the authentication method off.
- Enabled. Choose Enabled to turn the authentication method on.
