Adding a Laserfiche Named User in Laserfiche Rio

When configuring Laserfiche for use with Laserfiche Rio, you will first need to configure your Named User licenses and allocate them to either Named Users or Named Devices. Most of this configuration must be done in the License Manager application, but once you have reserved a block of Named User licenses for Repository Named Users, you will need to configure those Repository Named Users in the desktop or Web Administration Console. Instructions for this are below.

For information on configuring other elements of your Rio licensing, see the Rio Deployment Guide and the License Manager documentation.

Note that Repository Named Users must be individual user accounts. Groups cannot be added to the Named Users list.

Note: These instructions are for Rio installations. For instructions for Laserfiche Avante, see Administering Named Users with Laserfiche Avante
