Locked accounts

When there is a locked account, the user can send a request to an administrator to unlock it after trying to log in to the Work Portal.

The administrator (usually the admon user) will receive an unlock request notification.

 

If you are the administrator you can view the log of all requests pending. To do so, click the Admin option in the Main Menu of the Work Portal, open the User Management category and select the Locked accounts option.

At the side of each request there is a stoplight that indicates if the predetermined service time has expired or not.

When a request is selected, a new window shows the Locked accounts window. On this screen the administrator can change the user authentication options and the account status, whether blocked or deactivated, as well as check if the Password is expired.
