The Accounts pages are available to administrators only (i.e., users assigned Administrator role). From here, administrators can create and manage user accounts for Kraken (including their own accounts).
The My Account page is available to users assigned either Operator or Viewer roles to change their own account password. For information, see Changing Your Password.
From the Accounts pages, administrators can create, delete and modify user accounts for the Web interface.
An account can be allocated to each user of the system so that the identity of the user can be uniquely determined. Kraken provides three predefined account roles to assign privileges to users: Administrator, Operator and Viewer. For details, see Role-based Authorization.

To view or modify user account details, click the account link in the table to open the Account Settings page. For details, see Account Management.
To add a new account, click the Add button. For details, see Account Management.

Enable (if the account is Locked or has previously been disabled for inactivity)
To apply your changes, click Apply. The changes will take effect immediately.
