Configure Self-Registration Template User
Changing Permissions for the Template User
When self-registration requests are approved, the new users inherit the permissions of the template user. This user has default settings, which you can view and modify by clicking template user link. On the Edit Template User page, you will find the following settings:Option | Description |
---|---|
New accounts will expire | Enable this setting if you would like a self-registered user's account to expire
after a set number of days. Once the account expires, Faspex deactivates the account and
that user will no longer be able to log into Faspex,
unless you reactivate the account. Note: In the Accounts list,
inactive accounts are shown in gray. Packages sent to this user will remain on the
server (if configured to do so).
|
New accounts will be deleted | Enable this setting to automatically delete a self-registered user's account after a set number of days. Warning: If this setting is enabled,
the user's account will be completely removed from the Faspex database and you cannot re-activate it. Packages
sent to this user will remain on the server (if configured to do so).
