Selecting Actions > Create User User in the the User List will will open a window where you can create a new user account.

This link will be valid for 24 hours - after that the user will need to use the 'Forgot Password' option from the login screen to set their password.
Important: Please ensure the email account is active before creating the PICSWeb PICS account, or the PICSWeb PICS invite email will bounce and the email address will be blocked from receiving further emails from us.
