3.17.1.6 Expire a User

When running 963 Secure it is not possible to delete users to ensure that a complete audit trail is available. If a user
is no longer required, e.g. the person leaves or no longer requires access to 963 they must be expired to ensure that
they can no longer log in to the system. Once a user has been expired, they can never be unexpired.

1. Log in as a user in the ‘System Administrator’ workgroup as described in the ‘Log In’ section of this

manual.

2. Click

or on the Mode menu click Users to select the User Display.

3. Double-click the workgroup containing the user that is to be expired.
4. Right-click the user that is to be expired, and click Expire User. The Are you sure? dialogue box is

displayed.

5. Click Yes.

3.17.1.7 Unlock a User

When running 963 Secure if a user incorrectly enters their password more than the maximum number of times they
will be locked out of the 963 (locked), and will be unable to log in. 963 Secure will display a dialogue box.

The following icon in the Navigator when the User Display is selected indicates a locked user.

Only a user in the ‘System Administrator’ group can unlock a locked user.

To unlock a user:

1. Log in as a user in the ‘System Administrator’ workgroup as described in the ‘Log In’ section of this

manual.
