Cloning Users

This topic describes the procedure to clone users.

If you intend to create a user with identical parameters as an existing user, you can clone the user. Parameters refer to set of roles, tasks, teams, and default organization of the user. By cloning, you can avoid redoing the process of assigning roles, tasks, and teams.

1. On CUSP > My Applications, click (User Manager). The User Manager window appears.
   
2. Select Users - Roles or Users - Tasks or Users - Teams view in the User Manager window.
   
3. In the Users pane, right-click a user you intend to clone and select Clone User. The Clone User dialog box appears.
   
4. Provide the following details:
   
   • User Name - Unique name of the user.
     
   • User Full Name - Description or the Full name of the User.
     
   • User ID - The operating system identity of the User. This acts as a unique user identifier which is used to log into Process Platform environment. If the User ID of an organizational user being created already exists, you can map it to the existing authenticated user.

     
     Note: User Name and User Full Name are alphanumeric and cannot contain any of the following characters: \ / : * ? ; , " ' & < > | # +.

     
     Note: By default, the roles and the organization of the original user are associated with the new user.
     
5. To clone the teams and tasks of the user being cloned, select the Clone Teams and Clone Tasks check boxes.
   Note: When one of the teams has a lead role assigned, the team is not considered and all the other teams are processed for cloning.
   
6. Click Save icon.
   
   A cloned user is created.
