|                | A user can log in to the Self-Service GUI if a   |
|                | 'System User' entry exists for the user. A       |
|                | 'System 'User entry is created automatically     |
|                | when a user is added as a subscriber.            |
|                |                                                  |
|                | You can grant a user access to Self-Service by   |
| User access    | creating a user with a Self-Service role         |
|                | directly in the System user interface. A user    |
|                | with this role is not able to view devices or    |
|                | any services associated with the devices.        |
|                | Manually added users also cannot view personal   |
|                | information such as first name, last name,       |
|                | address, department, etc.                        |

|                | authentication methods: **Standard**, **LDAP**,  |
|                | and **SSO**.                                     |

|                | The Self-Service GUI interface can be branded by |
|                | configuring Cascading Style Sheets and images    |
|                | and logos. It uses the same theme upload and     |
|                | download interface used for the administrator    |
| GUI Themes and | GUI. The theme itself however, is different      |
| Branding       | between the administrator and Self-Service       |
