Editing Users

User accounts can be either inactivated or deleted, though deleting a user account is almost never necessary nor is it recommended.

Making a User Account Inactive

To remove a user’s EPR access and/or free up a user license for another individual, make the account inactive. Inactivating a user is almost always preferred to deleting an account because it safely preserves record history for any activity the user had in EPR. edited at any time, though it’s recommended that the user is not currently logged into the system when making changes to their profiles to ensure their next login attempt reflects any change(s).

To edit an existing user account:

  1. Navigate to Settings > Security > Users in the navigation panel.

  2. Search for a user account by scrolling through or typing their email address directly into the email column header.

  3. Click on (blue star) (right-facing arrow) to open the user PROFILE.

  4. Switch the toggle from “Active” to “Inactive.”

  5. Click SAVE.

Info

Inactive user accounts can be switched back to “Active” users at any time as long as a user license is available. To obtain additional user licenses, please contact e-PlanSoft Support.

Deleting a User account

If a user account was created accidentally, or was created and never used (and will not be needed in the future), then and only then should the account be deleted.

  1. Navigate to Settings > Security > Users in the navigation panel.

  2. Search for a user account by scrolling through or typing their email address directly into the email column header.

  3. Click on (blue star) (right-facing arrow) to open the user PROFILE.

  4. Click on (blue star) (ellipsis) on the upper right of the profile and click Delete.

  5. Click DELETE in the confirmation message to proceed or CANCEL to step back.

Note

Deleted accounts still exist in the EPR database. You may not reuse an email address if it is already in use by another user account, even if it is deleted. If an account was deleted by accident, it may be restored by contacting e-PlanSoft Support.

Removing Users from Groups

In situations where a user has been given a review assignments for a group, and is then removed from that group, the following will occur:

  1. The user retains rights to edit their existing comments, sketches, measurements and stamps on that assignment.

  2. While the user remains the Assignee for the assignment, they retain the right to change the assignment status.

  3. The user cannot create new comments or other markups for that group since they no longer represent that groupprofile.

  4. Click on any desired tab and update as needed.

  5. Once all changes are complete, return to the PROFILE tab and click SAVE.

Note

Updating a user’s profile may require clearing the user’s cache to ensure the change is recognized. This usually happens automatically, but if you encounter an instance where the change is made and the account is still not updating as expected, contact e-PlanSoft Support for assistance.

Removing Users from Groups

Updating a user’s profile details or stamp access is relatively straightforward, butremoving a group from a user account’s profile is a bit trickier if they have previously been given review assignments for that group. If the user has already worked on assignments for the group that they are no longer associated with, expect the following:

  • The user retains rights to edit their existing comments, sketches, measurements and stamps on that assignment.

  • While the user remains the Assignee for the assignment, they retain the right to change the assignment status.

    • To remove the status editing right, simply reassign the review to another user.

  • The user cannot create new comments or other markups for that group (since they no longer represent that group).
