Creating View Only User Accounts
Before a practice or organisation can start using INRstar all the INRstar users will need to be created a user account and given the correct permissions level.
These tasks can be completed by the INRstar View Only Administrator(s) for your practice or organisation. If you find you can't perform these tasks, you do not have the correct permissions.
- Create user accounts
- Set or change user permission
- Reset passwords
- Disable a user account
Important Notice
It is the organisations responsibility to determine their Anticoagulation Protocols specifying which Clinical Roles can undertake certain treatment activities. The allocation of roles to users should comply with local protocols.

tab. (This area of INRstar allows administrators to add a New User, Manage existing Users and reset passwords.)
You are now able to see a drop down box, this contains a list of all the users currently registered on the system. If you have not yet added any users, this drop down will only contain your username.
To add a user click the 
button on the right hand side.
Enter the following user details:
- Full Name: Enter the individual's full name including their Title.
- Username: It is recommended that stick to the same format for every user. For example 'firstname.surname'. Usernames are case sensitive, so try to use all lowercase letters. If the username is taken add a number at the end. For example joe.bloggs1

button.
Please Note: Each user will be set to read only as a default consequently you will need to set the permissions of each user you create. See Setting or changing View Only User Permissions: step-by-step instructions below for help with this.
Make a note of the Username and Password to inform the user.
Once the user has been added, you have to set their permissions level.
