User management involves managing information about users and organizations, which change as a result of personnel changes and organizational restructuring.
User management methods
There are two methods for user management: "User management by the service provider department", and "User management by the service user department".
User management by the service provider department
With this method, the system administrator uses user management commands to manage users and organizations.
User management by the service user department
With this method, the administrator of the service user department uses GUI operations to manage the administrators and general users in the user department within the organization.
User management functions
User management can be broadly classified into three types, as follows:
Organization management
User management
Service management
The following table shows which roles have permission to perform which type of user management operation:

In order to ensure user uniqueness, a user ID cannot be used again once its user has been deleted.
