Editing general user information
Once a user account is created, you can add or edit the user's general information on the General tab of the Manage Users view. For example, if a user has a new preferred email address, you can use the General tab to update the email address associated with the user.
Note: Passwords are no longer created or managed by Unifocus user administrators. The user creates their own password when they click the link in the invitation email. If the user forgets their password, they can reset it by clicking the Forgot Password link on the Sign In screen.
