Assigning Roles
VideoXpert contains pre-defined roles that you can assign to users. You cannot change these roles but

Resetting Passwords

passwords.

reset a user’s password if a user does not remember his or her password, or the user is locked out of the
system because of failed login attempts or because of letting the password change timer lapse.
Users with appropriate permissions can also reset other users’ passwords and force users to change
their passwords.
1. Click the Users tab, and then click Users at the top left of the window.
2. Select the user whose password you want to reset, and then click the Edit the selected User
icon ( ).

4. Enter a new value in the New Password and Re-Enter New Password fields.
If you decide not to change the password, you must click Do Not Change Password in order to
continue.

Editing a Role and Assigning Roles.
