Information for administrators

- If you are a user of user type Administrator, you cannot modify some of your profile details, for example, logon and privileges. Only another administrator can change these profile details.
- Changes to login details take effect immediately
- When you create a new dataset, Content Manager creates the Administrator logon by default, but will not assign it a security level.

  Administrators need to adjust their security level to suit their needs.
