Managing Users

Depending upon how ICI is configured in your organization, there are two ways to create a new user in ICI.   

1. Using the "Create User" tile on the UI

2. Adding the users in the Active Directory through technical configuration.

The user administrators can set the preferences as default for users according to their locations or offices they work in, while creating or editing a user. This reduces the end user’s efforts of setting up the ICI account with required parameters after first log-in and presents the system with appropriate and specific pre-settings.   


Administrator can: 

  • Set and manage preferences for single user through single user update and for multiple users through bulk process.
  • View preference settings modifications details in the history tab for audit. 
  • Search users based on parameters related to preference settings.

With the pre-set preferences by Administrators, standard ICI users can: 

  • Access the ICI system with appropriate details as default after first login. 
  • Override the default preference settings as per individual preferences

 

Create a New User 

1. Click the Users tile on the "Admin" page. The Users page opens. This page displays the list of users and their details such as Name, Email ID, Organization Unit. You can also see the User’s Culture Code (Preferred language). ICI identifies user language from the value they have selected for language in Preferences. On this page, you can view the User Details or replace a user.

2. Click the Create User tile on the Users page. The Create User page opens.

The page consists of  the following tabs:

  • Details
  • Preferences
  • Team

Enter the information in each tab as follows and click Next to go to the next tab.

The Details tab is divided into two areas:

  • Personal Details
  • Work Details

Personal Details

Field                                                                Action
First Name Type the first name of the user.
Last Name Type the last name of the user.
Email Address Type the e-mail address of the user.
Organization Unit Click the Organization Structure icon and select the organization unit of the user.

 

Type of user Select whether the user is Internal or External. Internal users appear while you create internal approver rule and external users appear while you create external approver rule.
Is Administrator Select Yes if you want to set the user as an administrator.

 

Supervisor User Click the Add User icon to add supervisor. In the Select User dialog box, select supervisor user, and then click Add. Alternatively, in the Search User box, type the name of the desired user, and then click the Magnifying glass icon. Use the scroll arrows to scroll through users.

Note: The Select User dialog box displays the supervisors that are in the selected organization unit. Only active ICI users are displayed.

The user receives email notifications of access expiry in the following events:

Field Action
Hierarchy Level Type or select a positive integer number. The number depends on your organization hierarchy. For example, for some organizations, hierarchy level one may be the top level while for some organizations hierarchy level 10 may be the top level.
Is Authorized Signatory Select Yes if you want the user to be authorized signatory for agreement. The user appears as internal or external signatory as follows:
  • Internal Signatory: If the user type is Internal.
  • External Signatory: If the user type is external.

 

Assign User Group Click the Add User icon to assign user group. In the Assign User Groups dialog box, select user group. Click Add.
Assign Security Group Click the Add User to assign security group. In the Assign Security Groups dialog box, click to select security group, and then click Add.
Access Expiry Date Select the expiry date for the user. After this date the user access to ICI is disabled.

Note: If you are an administrator, you can change the access expiry date to a future date allowing the user to access ICI till the newly specified date.

Work Details

Configure the attributes to display in the Work Details area as per the requirement of your organization. You can create these attributes in the Contract Type - Masterdata which is pre-configured according to the requirements of your organization.
The list of attributes in the Masterdata type must have the attribute named User with the data type as User.
Rest of the attributes vary as per the organizational requirements.

3. Click Next. The Preferences tab opens.

The Preferences tab contains User Settings and Locale Settings, through which Administrators can set the default preferences for a user. For example, Language as English (United States).
The details are pre-populated based on the Type of User selected on the Details tab. The Theme color is pre-selected as per the Default User Theme or External User Default Theme set in User Theme of Application Settings for the selected Type of User.

Replacing a User

ICI has a provision to replace User A with User B for a specific role.

This may be necessary in several scenarios, such as User A was incorrectly assigned initially, an account may be delinquent for an extended period of time, or the owner is busy.

All tasks and actions that would otherwise have gone to User A (per his/her role), will now go to User B instead. Though User A is replaced by User B, they both will receive the notifications for the replacement happening.

For example, John has the roles of primary owner and approver. If he is replaced by Mary for the primary owner role, all tasks/actions for that role will be sent to Mary going forward. John will not receive any notifications at all. However, he will continue to have all the privileges of an approver and get all notifications for that role.

The replacement of the user can be reversed anytime when required. The replace user functionality is available in Agreements and Amendments, Requests and Associated Documents only. However, the replacement can happen in any state, as long as the Replace User  icon is available.

The replacement can be done by any user with the following roles having the replace user privilege:

  • Primary owner
  • Contract admin
  • Secondary owner
  • Contributor
  • Observer
  • Business owner

These roles cannot replace user:

  • Approver
  • Deviation Approver
  • Internal Signatory
  • External Signatory
  • Reviewer 
  • External Reviewer
  • Contract Requester
  • External User

To Replace a User:

1. Click the Replace User button next to the record for the user that you want to deprovision. For example, Alon Carlton. You can search a user on the Replace User window.

Managing Technical Admin Users

Technical Administrators can be configured/added for performing required technical configurations in the System Configuration Portal.

When a new ICI admin user logs in, they should be able to setup other internal users as technical admin users of the System Configuration portal.
 
Note: Only the ICI Admin user should be able to setup other internal provisioned users as the Technical Admin user.

The ICI Admin can either create a new Security group, as required, or use an existing security group. Thereafter, the authorization of technical admin users will depend on Security Groups Privilege corresponding to the “Self Service” privilege entity, and on roles assigned to specific users.

The “Self Service” privilege can be configured in the backend and it will be visible to users under the Security Group Privilege tab. The "Manage" access option can be selected to grant access to the System Configuration Portal for technical admin users.
 
Note: The user who gets Technical Admin privileges can be any internal provisioned user on that instance (even a non admin user).
 
To set up the System Configurations for Technical Admin Users:
 
1.  From ICI menu tiles, click “Admin” > “Security Groups”.
2.  Click the “Privileges” tab, the “Privileges” tab opens with the list of all the privilege attributes, with options to see/select access type as “View”, “Manage” or “None”.
3.  “Create” or “Edit” a Security Group.
4.  Locate the privilege “Self Service”, click the “Manage” access type radio button. With this access, the “System Configurations” tile option under the “Configure” tile gets activated and visible to the user.
5.  Click “Save” for a new security group or “Update” in case of editing a Security Group.
 
Note: The default access for “Self Service” will be set to “None”.
