Manage User Accounts

How User Identification Works

In ER2, user accounts are distinguished as follows:

• For manually added users: <username>
• For users imported from the Active Directories: <domain\username>

This allows users with the same username to be added to ER2 when:

1. The username is unique for manually added users.
2. The domain\username pair is unique for users imported from Active Directories.
