Relyence User Guide
Managing your Users, Groups, and Permissions

Managing your Users, Groups, and Permissions

(Only available if Manage Users, Manage Groups, and Manage Active Users permissions are allowed.) 

The Manage Users and Groups function enables you to control your team members who can use Relyence as well as their access to Relyence Products and functions.

Managing your Users and Groups will be covered in this section. The Manage Users and Groups function also is used to access the following features:

Accessing the Manage Users and Groups Function

To manage users and groups, select Manage Users and Groups from the Account menu.

Note: Manage Users and Groups only appears in the Account dropdown if you have permission to access these functions. Your Relyence Administrator controls these permission settings.


A page with three tabs, Manage UsersManage Groups, and Active Users appears.

Manage Users

To manage users, click on the Manage Users tab to activate it.


To add a new user, click Insert from the toolbar. A new user will be added with all blank information. The data fields that are required are noted.

If at any time you want to deactivate a user and not allow them access to Relyence, select the Inactive checkbox. This is a way for you to control your Relyence licenses. For example, you may want to add in team members who may be assigned tasks, or be sent Workflow emails, but do not need to use the Relyence tools.

Enter the information about the user including Title, First Name, Last Name, Company, Phone, and Email. The email address will be used to sign in to Relyence.

When first adding a new user, the Password and Repeat Password fields appear. Once a user has set a password, the Password and Repeat Password fields will not appear, and a Change Password link is available. Clicking the Change Password link will bring up the Change Password dialog to allow you to enter a new password.

There are several different methods you can use to establish the new user's password:

  • You may enter a password for them directly. You can then give them their password in whatever manner you choose. 
  • You may enter a password for them directly, and also select the Send an email to this user with a link to set password. They have a temporary password to use to sign in, but they will receive an email with a link to set a new password.
  • Do not enter a password and select the Send email to this user with a link to set password. They will receive an email with a link to set their password. They will not be able to access Relyence until they set their password.

Note that once a team member signs in, they can change their password at any time, refer to  Changing your Password.

In the Member Of list, click the Add Group link to bring up the Add Groups dialog to select the Groups the user belongs to. As you begin to type in the Groups field, the list will be automatically filtered to the matching groups or you can click in the Groups field and click to select the group. You can add the user to multiple groups at one time in this dialog. When complete, click OK.


To remove a user from a group, click on the Group name in the list to select it, and then click Remove Group.

The Products section displays the Products the user is allowed to use, and the Permissions sections displays the permissions set for the user. Both are based on the groups that the user is a member of. These sections are displayed for informational purposes, you cannot make modifications to these setting on this page. Changes must be made at the group level on the Manage Groups tab.

You must always have at least one User in the Administrators Group.

When you have completed entering all the information for the new user, click Save to save your changes.

Click Cancel if you want to discard modifications you made. Click Delete to delete a user.

If you need to search for a specific user, click Find. The Find Users dialog appears.

Select the Field that you want to search and in the Find field, enter the text to find. Click Find.


In the table, review any users found that match the criteria and click Go To if you want to review or change the details for that user in the Users pane.

Click Close when finished.

To close the Manage Users and Groups page and return to where you were, click Close from the toolbar, or click Back to Analysis from the Sidebar menu.

Manage Groups

To manage groups, click on the Manage Groups tab to activate it.


The Manage Groups tab allows you to create and manage your Relyence Groups. Groups allow you to control access to your Relyence Products and set the permissions for those Products for your team members. For example, you may have a team responsible for FMEAs and a different team responsible for FRACAS. You can create a "FMEA Team" and a "FRACAS Team" and add team members, or Users, accordingly.

You must always have an Administrators Group, which Relyence creates for you by default. At least one User must be part of the Administrators Group.

To duplicate the Group selected in the left-most pane, click Duplicate from the toolbar. 

A new Group is created with the originally selected Group name plus the text "copy" appended to it. To define a unique name for the duplicated group, edit the Name field in the right-most pane.

Note that all Group settings, including Products and Permissions, from the originally selected Group are copied to the duplicated Group. Members are not automatically assigned to the duplicated Group; you can use the Add User link in the Members list to add Users for this Group, as described below in the Insert section.

To add a new Group, click Insert from the toolbar. A new Group without access to any Relyence Products, and without any permissions is added. Enter a Name for the new Group. You can optionally add a Description

Click the Add User link in the Members list to bring up the Add Users dialog to select from the list of Users for this Group. As you begin to type in the Users field, the list will be automatically filtered to the matching names or you can click in the Users field and select the users. You can add multiple Users to a Group at one time in this dialog. When complete, click OK.


To remove a User from this Group, click on the user name in the Members list, and then click the Remove User link.

Assigning Product Licenses

In the Products section, select the Relyence Products you want this Group to have access to. Select the <Product name> checkbox to grant full access to the Relyence Product. When you enable a Product, the users in this Group are automatically granted permissions for that Product, which can be viewed in the Permissions section.

Select the <Product name> - Read-only checkbox to allow read-only access. Read-only access enables the members of the Group to view data only. When read-only is selected, Product-based permissions settings will be automatically set to Deny and cannot be changed.

Note that for concurrent user licensing, when a member of a Group who has both Full and Read-only access to a Relyence Product, that user will automatically be logged in with a Read-only license if no Full license is available for that Relyence Product.

Setting Permissions

Permissions are used to establish the set of functions your Groups can use. For example, if you have defined a "FRACAS Team", perhaps you do not want those in that Group to be able to customize the FRACAS Forms and Fields; you want to maintain these as Administrator-only functions. In that case you would set the Group permission Customize Form and Fields to Deny.

The following is a list of all the permissions in Relyence. To allow the Group to access to a specific function, select Allow. To not allow access to a function, select Deny.

For Read-only licenses, Product permissions will be disabled. You cannot allow permissions for Relyence Products with Read-only licenses.

Note that groups of permissions can be expanded and/or collapsed as needed. To expand a grouping of permissions, such as the Administrative permissions, click + to the left of Administrative. Likewise, to collapse a grouping of permissions, such as the Administrative permissions, click - to the left of Administrative. At the top-right corner of the Permissions table, you can also use the + Expand all and - Collapse all options, as needed to view or hide groups of permissions.
