Users List 

• Within this view the IPM can see a list of all users in their system.

• The IPM can sort user information based on:
• Name
• Screen Name
• Email Address
• Account Status
• Roles
• Last Login Date

• The IPM also has the option to search for users by:
• Name
• Screen Name
• Email
• Next to the search bar, the total amount of registered users in the system will be displayed.  

User, Profile Page 

• Once the IPM searches for a user they can click on either the Name, Screen Name, or Email to view user profile information

• Users can be deactivated and deleted from the user page, using the [...] menu button on the right side of the screen
  • Deactivating a user will prevent that user from logging into the system. However, all associated data including submissions, comments, votes, and action item results will remain.
  • When viewing a deactivated user from this screen, a note will be displayed alongside their name indicating the admin who deactivated them and the corresponding date
  • Deactivation is reversible; deactivated users can be reactivated from the same menu
  • Deleting a user will permanently delete the user's account and all data associated with it. The confirmation prompt will provide an overview of what will be deleted so that you can understand the scope of impact.

• On the User page the IPM can also view information such as Key Metrics specific to the the user, Expertise and Endorsements, and Certifications.
• Key Metrics include:
• Overall Contribution: This is a percentile rank of the user based on reputation points.
• Challenge Participation Rate: This is a percentile of the number of challenges that the user participated in (either vote, comment, or submitted idea), divided by the total number of challenges that the user is in the user access groups.
• Evaluation Participation Rate: This is a percentile of evaluation action items (Review, Single Scale, or Scorecard) that the user completed divided by the total number of evaluation action items that have been assigned to the user.
• Complete Projects: This is the total number of projects with a “Completed” system status that the user is either on the project team or is project lead.
• Tracked Outcomes: This is a sum total of revenues and cost savings for projects that the user is either on the project team or is project lead.
• Administrators can also add certifications to each user selected, users will now be able to view their certifications on their Enterprise profile page:

• In addition, Users that receive certifications will be notified via email. This email can be configured under Enterprise Setup > Site > System Email Messages > Certification Received

Users, License and Roles

• • This section displays all roles the user is assigned to, and the corresponding pipeline
  • Users with admin roles can view a user's list of roles and licenses
  • Users with admin roles can also remove a user from all roles and licenses by clicking on the "..." drop-down menu > Remove all Roles. 

Administrators

• The administrator tab provides a list of users who are configured under an 'administrator' type user role on your Brightidea site.

• Under this tab, the administrator(s) can see a total count of current administrator(s) and also see what Pipeline/Challenge the user is actually configured an administrator in.
  • Please note, this section supports a maximum of 350 administrators. 
  • Also, it excludes any Brightidea employee administrators you might have configured on your site. 
• The "Summary of Max # of Administrators" section provides the previous administrator license counts for the past 10 months.

NOTE: For more information on Administrator Licensing (including how to remove/update Administrators) feel free to review our Support Article here: Quick Reference Guide regarding Admin Licensing

• The email address is used as the main account identifier to update account.
• Note: In order to update user profiles the user email must remain the same (as the one that already exists on the user(s) profiles).
