Usermanagement

Relution features an internal user management system that supports creating user accounts manually or adding them via external providers. Some key points and special considerations are explained below.

Users Overview #

• Each user is created within a single organization in Relution.
• A user cannot belong to multiple organizations simultaneously.
• Multi-tenant support is available for administrative accounts, but the user account always resides in the original tenant.
• All user accounts are stored in the database.
• Email addresses must be unique; duplicate emails are not allowed.

Adding User Accounts #

There are several ways to add user accounts:

1. Manual account creation
2. CSV file upload
3. Integration with external providers (e.g., LDAP or AzureAD)

1. Manual Account Creation #

• Go to the Users section and click Add to open the input form.
• Fill in all required fields.
• Up to 15 custom fields can be filled in the lower section (useful for later policy variables).
• Define permissions and groups as needed.
• More information about permissions can be found in the article Permissions →.

2. CSV File Upload #

The CSV import function is available for importing multiple user accounts. The complete process, including the template, preview, and optional group or permission assignment, is described in the article CSV Import of Users and Classes →.

3. Integration with External Providers #

• When using an external provider (e.g., LDAP, AzureAD), the provider is always the leading system.
• Imported content is updated automatically if it changes on the provider side.
• Fields such as email address cannot be changed locally, as they will be overwritten during the next synchronization.
• During login, Relution always authenticates against the configured LDAP. If the connection is u

User Groups #

User groups are managed under Users → Groups. Groups bundle user accounts — for example, to assign permissions via group membership. Permission roles → can be assigned to individual users as well as to groups — members receive the permissions of their groups.

• Add group: A new group is created via Add in the group overview.
• Manage members: Members are added or removed via Manage members in the group details. Both user accounts and other groups can be members of a group (nested groups).
• Delete: Groups that are no longer needed can be deleted from the group list. System groups cannot be deleted.

The group memberships of an individual user can also be managed on the user account under the Groups & Permissions tab.
