Users overview (Applicant Management)
Under Settings, you will find a Users area. All company-internal users are listed in the overview table of all users. Recruiters are listed in their own separate overview.
On the left, underneath the Search function, you will see four different links (depending on your permissions) for creating administrators, HR experts, committee members and hiring managers. Click on the link of your choice and type in the details. Select a login name and click Save. You will be automatically directed to the user’s profile view, where you can enter further details about this person and configure the most important user settings.
Who can create which users?
New administrators may only be created by administrators. For each of the other user roles, the administrator will determine whether only an administrator can set the role. He or she may do so by displaying the upper link — or the lower link, which is also displayed to HR experts.
Actions
- Create new administrator: The setup administrator for the Applicant Management system
- Create new HR expert: planned power user of the Applicant Management system
- Create new HR assistant: Assistant to the Applicant Management power user
- Create new manager: The hiring manager who submits job requisitions
- Create new committee member: Person who is allowed to view the application process
The “Export to Excel” multiple action in the user dashboard (/Administration/Users) is available to administrators only.
The multiple actions "Delete user" and "Send password" can be displayed and used for easier user administration.

Profile view of individual users
To access a user’s profile, select the user from the overview table in the users overview. You have the following possibilities there:
Actions (for active users)
Please note that the range of available actions depends on a number of different factors, and that different actions will be hidden or displayed in accordance with those factors (e.g. Deactivate SSO, Remove login block, etc.). Also check whether the link in question is being displayed.
- Deactivate SSO and send password
- The user is currently blocked due to repeated login attempts with incorrect passwords. (Remove login block)
- User has no password, send a new password
- Send a new password
- Set new password
- Specify successor
- In Applicant Management, users can be deactivated. This is useful if someone — for example, an administrator — leaves your company, and their successor is being trained. It only takes a few clicks to transfer all of the jobs, tasks, rights, etc. which had been assigned to the old administrator to a different person. Deactivated users can be reactivated at any time.
More information under: Deactivate user (Applicant Management)
- Delete user
Actions (for deactivated users)
If a user is deactivated and later wants to resume working in Umantis Applicant Management, go to the user overview and click on the person’s profile, then select the action appropriate to their role:
- Reactivate as administrator
- Reactivate as HR expert
- Reactivate as HR assistant
- Reactivate as manager

The person will now have the appropriate access rights back, as appropriate for their role.
