From PADS4 version 2025.1 and onwards, the users and (most) permissions have moved to the PADS4 Web Portal. Where it was previously required that you have the System Management application installed, you are now able to do your user management administration from your web browser.

The user and roles section in PADS4 allows you to create user accounts with the ability to define exactly the access that they require.

​
How to create a user

    • Portnumber is optional when hosted on port 80
