Manage Historian WebTrend roles
Historian WebTrend uses FactoryTalk for user authentication. When users sign in to
Historian WebTrend, FactoryTalk account information is copied to Historian WebTrend.
This allows Historian WebTrend to manage the trends linked to FactoryTalk accounts. To
manage FactoryTalk accounts and privileges, go to
FactoryTalk Administration Console
.
Starting with FactoryTalk Historian SE
version 12.00.00, FactoryTalk users must be
assigned a role before they can sign in to Historian WebTrend. If FactoryTalk users are
in the default Administrators group, they automatically have the Editor role when
signing in to Historian WebTrend.
TIP:
- If FactoryTalk users are removed fromFactoryTalk Administration Console, Historian WebTrend will not receive a notification. However, you cannot sign in to Historian WebTrend using these accounts.
- If FactoryTalk users are removed from Historian WebTrend, they are only removed from the Historian WebTrend database, not from the FactoryTalk system. These users will be active again when they sign in to Historian WebTrend.
