1 Overview
Like any system usernames and passwords can cause some issues for people trying to access the system. Below is a set of step by step checks for getting an account to log in.
2 1. Username Spelling
Ensure that the Firstname and the Surname of the person are correct and that there are no leading or trailing spaces.
Main Menu > System Access Management > User Administration > Edit User - Security Details > Lookup the user > System Details
Using the arrow keys on the keyboard to move to the start and end of the names to check for the spaces.
3 2. The password
Reset it to password all lower case to allow the user change it on login.
Main Menu > System Access Management > User Administration > Edit User - Security Details > Lookup the user > System Details
Retype the word password into the password box.
If the user is typing in their password wrong, you can view this in a report.
Main Menu > System Access Management > Security Reports > Login Reports - Failed Logins > Choose Today
4 3. Status
Ensure that the "status" of the user is set to Live, Training or Placeholder.
Main Menu > System Access Management > User Administration > Edit User - Security Details > Lookup the user > System Details
5 4. Retired
You may also need to check that no retired user has a similar name, which may be causing confusion.
Main Menu > System Access Management > System Management > Edit Retired Users > Search for similar names
6 5. Single inverted commas
If a user has a surname such as O'Grady or O'Brien, and was loaded from an Excel template, then it is possible that a third party tool has intefered and converted your single inverted comma to another character that looks similar. There are three variants ( ‘ ’ ' )
Main Menu > System Access Management > User Administration > Edit User - Security Details > Lookup the user > System Details
The solution is to retype the surname and tape the key that draws the type you want.
7 6. User locked out
With too many incorrect login attempts a user can become locked out.
Main Menu > System Access Management > User Setup Requests > Release Lock Out > See if the user is in the list at all
8 7. IP address restrictions.
There are two areas where an IP address restriction can be applied, user and system.
User is modified in the IP range field of a users record
Main Menu > System Access Management > User Administration > Edit User - Security Details > Lookup the user > Primary Security Details > IP Range
System is modified by the All n One team and you will need to phone support to check this
If the user is locked out by IP address, you can view this in a report.
Main Menu > System Access Management > Security Reports > Login Reports - Failed Logins - IP Restricted > Choose Today
9 8. System Live
Check with a default working account that you can log in. If no user account can log in, the system may have become locked out. This lock out is managed by All n One, please contact support if this needs to be checked.
