Each team member must have a user account on the project Vault server before using project management commands.
To ensure a secure environment, define a separate Vault user account for each person who will be accessing project data on the project server. Each account requires a unique user name and password.
Only a user with administrator privileges can add a user. When you add a new user to a server, you can specify a role for the user, which defines how the user will access data on the server. AutoCAD Civil 3D Vault project management supports administrator, editor, and consumer roles for user accounts.
In general, you will find managing access to project data easier to control at the group level, instead of at the individual user level. When you create a user account, specify a role for each user that gives them the highest level of access they require to any part of the database. For more information, see Creating Vault Groups.
