Auditing users

SuperMap iPortal 8C (2017) SP1 or higher versions provide user auditing capabilities. If your portal does not want users to register at will, and only the users approved by administrators can register as iPortal users, then the administrator need enable this function. After enabling this function, only the users approved by administrators can register as iPortal users. The users created by the administrator in the User Management page do not need to be audited.

User auditing function is not enabled by default. After enabling this function, it is recommended that enable the User registration support to fill in the mailbox, enable the Mail notification function, and Configure the mail server. When finishing alll these configurations, the users will be prompted to wait for the audit result from the administrator after finishing registering on the page; and the audit result will be notified by mail. After the registered users are approved by the administrator, the registration can be successful.

Enable / disable user auditing

User auditing function is not enabled by default, that is, all users can directly register as iPortal users by clicking the Sign Up button in the iPortal page.
