Creating New Users

You create new users with the page create.htm. A check performed at page initialization ensures that this page can only be called by an administrator. You enter the required user data for a new user on this page.

Note Note

The authorization check performed at function call already ensures that no unauthorized user can create a new Internet User, but it makes sense that unauthorized users should not even be able to display the Create page.

End of the note.

In OnInputProcessing of the page, the function module SUSR_USER_INTERNET_CREATE is called, which creates the new internet user. The INT_USER serves as a reference user here. The new Internet user has the same authorizations as the reference user.

You can of course use multiple reference users for different purposes. This enables you to create scenarios where selected Internet users have authorization to create other Internet users.

It is also conceivable that you would have applications where new users may create their own users and register themselves. In this case, the guest user, used to display the public pages, would have to have authorization to create Internet users.
