Creating several users

WebUntis provides a function to Create users from the teacher or student list. You can find this function in the user administration view that you can access via the <User administration> button under <Administration> | <Users>.

Create users for teachers

The function goes through the list of all teachers in WebUntis and creates a user for each teacher. Users are assigned to the user group that you have selected.

If an e-mail address was defined for the teacher in the teacher master data, it will also be used for the (newly created) user.

You can define, if the short name, first name, surname, date of birth or personnel number should be used for the user name. You can also generate user names with delimiter.

German umlauts can be converted by the respective option, e.g. 'ü' is then spelled 'ue'.br>

Note: Preview first

Please note that WebUntis provides you with a preview first after you clicked the button <Create users for teachers>. You have to confirm this preview and click on 'Create user'. Now users will be created.

Create users for students

This application works in the same way as for teachers. You have the additional option here of only creating users for students to whom a class has been assigned.

Note: Creating several times

The <Create users> function can be selected as often as you wish. Existing users will not be affected.

Assign generated password

Optionally, the password field for the new users can remain empty, can be created according to the date of birth or you can generate a random password for each user. Newly created passwords are displayed on the screen and can be printed or saved to a file.

The passwords will also be sent to you via an internal message. You can also make the users change the generated password at their first login due to security reasons.

Lock the users of inactive or resigned persons

Users of former teachers or students who are inactive or resigned can be locked via this function.

Adopt external key for user

If an external key is assigned to a teacher or student, it can be adopted for the user, as well.

Copy the person's e-mail address to the user

If an e-mail address is assigned to the teacher or student it can be copied to the user, as well.
