Edit User Details
Use this page to provide basic information about the user and to set the user's access rights.
To access this page, select Setup & Admin > Setup Users. Then do one of the following:
- Click Add to add a new user.
- In the table, find the user whose access you want to edit and click the pencil icon in the Edit column.
If you are adding a new user, all fields are blank. If the user already exists, the fields are populated with the selected user’s current profile.
The following sections explain how to:
- Edit basic user information.
- Assign access rights.
- Choose the centers (Lockout/Tagout, Confined Space, Reliability) for which the user has these rights.
Edit Basic User Information
Fill in the User Information section:
- Fill in the required fields Last Name and First Name. If desired fill in Phone and Cell.
- For a new user, type their email address in the Email field. You cannot edit the email address of an existing user. Instead, have the user login with their old email address and then change their email address. See Change Email Address.
For a new user, in the Language list select the language in which the welcome email should be sent. The user can change the language in which to view the website by opening the Welcome menu and selecting Account Settings.
Assign Access Rights
Tip: To quickly assign this user the same settings as another user, click Copy Another User's Settings. For further instructions see Copy User Settings.

If you want to see what sites are in a region, select the region and then hover the pointer over the image of a globe next to the Region list. The software displays an information box listing the sites in that region. When logged in as the subscription administrator, a Setup Regions button is available in the upper right of the page, below the help button. This opens the Setup Regions page so you can create a new region or edit existing regions.
- Site: Grants view rights to a specific site and, if desired, area within that site. The software displays Site and Area lists for you to choose the location. If you select a site and do not specify an area within that site, then access is granted to all areas within the site.
Can perform edit for: Select this check box to grant the user rights to edit. Choose the location for which the user has edit rights. (See above for a description of the location choices.) You cannot assign edit rights for a location if view rights are not assigned for that location. For example, if you have restricted view rights to a particular site, then only that site is available for edit rights; region and organization are not available.
The following check boxes specify what the user can edit. They are only available if the edit check box is selected.
- Create and edit documents: Grants the right to create and edit documents for the locations in which editing is allowed. In the next section you will choose for which centers (Lockout/Tagout, Confined Space, or Reliability) this applies.

This allows the user to attach files not created with LINK360 software (such as Word documents or engineering drawings) to equipment. Applies only to equipment within the locations for which edit rights are granted. For information on attaching a file to equipment see Find/Create Files.

Choose Centers
Turn rights either On or Off for each center: Lockout/Tagout, Confined Space, and Reliability. This either grants or denies the rights set above. When access is turned off for a center, the only option visible when you hover over that center’s tab is Awaiting Your Review.
When done, click Save to save your changes and return to the Setup Users page.
