Log-in and User Accounts
Overview
At your discretion, Morning Flight can be password protected to keep a disgruntled employee from altering your prices or sabotaging the system. Whoever installs the program and enters his or her name during prelaunch will automatically become the administrator.
The second time you load the program, you will be asked to sign in with your initials. Since you haven't assigned yourself a password yet, leave the password field blank and click OK to enter the program. Password use is optional.
During subsequent sessions, the sign-in window will open with the two check boxes grayed out. If your username is showing and you had the two boxes checked during the previous session, just click OK. Otherwise, enter your username and tab to the password field to enable both boxes.
Changing your User Account and Password
Not much to explain here. Standard computer fare, the kind of stuff we all do just to manage our e-mail. In Morning Flight, password use is optional. If you're the only one using the program and you're not concerned about security, you may want to keep yourself signed in.
Setting up User Accounts
Not surprisingly, only the administrator is allowed to set up user accounts and grant access rights. In the user profile below, Kathleen has access to all areas except My Shop. She can quote prices, enter orders, and issue invoices. What she cannot do is change hourly press rates. Those are the sole domain of someone with Access-1 credentials. In this case, Herb, the president.
