Add or remove a CQRS user and assign a role in CQRS National
CQRS users are created or removed from the system by a CQRS User Administrator or an Advanced User Administrator.
Creating a new user is a two-stage process and requires you to 1) create the user account and 2) specify an associated organisation(s) and role(s) within the organisation(s).
A CQRS user cannot be deleted from the system. Removal involves revoking links to one or more organisations with which the user is associated. This is useful when a user is transferring between or leaving an organisation. If the user will no longer need to use CQRS, you can disable their CQRS user access.
This job aid describes the steps required to add or remove CQRS users. It also describes linking or unlinking organisations and disabling a user account.

13. Select the Submit button. CQRS displays a message confirming that you have successfully added the new user.
Removing Organisation Access for a User
Remember, you cannot delete a CQRS user. Removal simply means that you revoke any or all links to organisations. If the user no longer has responsibilities within CQRS, you can disable their access to the system.
- From the CQRS Home screen, select the Administrative Tasks tab.

NOTE: CQRS displays current users, their organisation and the date they were added. If the user name is not displayed, use the Search By filter to locate them.
2. Select the user name from the display list.
3. To remove access to an organisation, select the Remove Organisation link.

4. Select the Submit button.
CQRS displays a message confirming that you have successfully removed user access to the chosen organisation.
If the user no longer has any CQRS responsibilities, you will also need to disable their access to the system. If this is the case, continue with the steps described below.
Disabling a User Account
- In the upper right corner of the User Details screen, select the Disabled radio button.

2. Select the Submit button.
CQRS displays a message confirming that you have successfully disabled the user’s CQRS access.
