Validated Systems

With W906 Validated EMS installed and a W901 Licence applied to it, Users can only be Retired or Disabled, NOT Deleted.

Retiring a user:

This is a permanent change and cannot be undone.

When a User is Retired, their User Name cannot be used again and the associated User License is locked and cannot be reused.

New Users will not be able to re-use the retired name; attempts to enter it will result in a request to enter a new User Name.

An alternative to retiring a user is to Disable a User. When a user is Disabled, the license is not locked and the User License can be repurposed.
