The default credentials for database administrator are as follows: login: SYSDBA, password: masterkey
After you login as an administrator, you will be able to access Tools -> Users menu. The menu allows you to create and disable users.
SYSDBA is a special user and can:
- create/edit users (includes assigning rights to change categories and fields in Contacts)
- create super-users (who will be able to see ALL items in database excluding emails, regardless of item settings)
- upgrade database to new version.
When you press "Add" in Users administration dialog, you will see this window:

Login and Password are to be user in File -> Connect EPIM dialog.
Name - that's an optional field. If filled in, this name will be displayed to other users when they want to assign item to John. If this field is left blank, "JS" will be used.
Most users will be assigned a "Standard Access". Sometimes one user will give full read-write rights to items to other user. You can overrule that by checkin "Read Only". In this case John will only be able to read items assigned to him by other users (even if other users assign items to him). This is very convenient if you have for example a trainee in the house. You can assign items to him, but he will not be able to modify them.
"Access to all users' data" is a super-user's privilege. It means John will be able to see all items created by other users, even if they did not assign it to him. Exception is Mails.
You can limit his rights by "Read-only" attribute. This is convenient if you have for example and auditor in the house, who needs to see full database, but should not change it.
