To prevent access to DW Spectrum it is possible to disable a user. Unlike deleting a user, this method preserves the user information in the database and can therefore be reversed. Also, the log of a disabled user's actions is retained (see "Audit Trail of User Actions").

To disable a user

1.Open the Users tab using one of these methods:

•Open System Administration and go to the Users tab.

•Open Main Menu and click on User Management to open System Administration on the Users tab

2.Hover over a user and click on the Enable button. Green indicates active, gray indicates disabled. (There is also a Enabled button in the User Settings dialog.)

3.To change the status of multiple users at once, check the box next to the desired users and use the Enable or Disable button below the user list.
