Login Allowed

Some users may be added for informational purposes only but are not expected to login to the Risky Business SOS software. For example, external consultants and investigators may not need to have access to the software but still require a user name in the system to keep track of documents they create.

Safety Officer

This role is the system administrator and they have access to all aspects of the Risky Business SOS software. This user creates Users, groups, locations and adds chemicals. The Safety Officer role is the only role that can be directly assigned to a user, whether that user is a part of a User Group or not a part of any User Group.

Warnings

Each User can have Warning Messages displayed or silently stored to the database. There are three levels of Warning Messages that a user can receive.

When you are finished making changes to the User, click the Save button. Optionally click the Close button to close the window without saving your changes.
