User Management and Access Control

This guide explains how user accounts and access control work in MicroPowerManager.

User Management

A user account is required for every individual who needs access to the company's (tenant's) MicroPowerManager system.

This includes:

  • Project developer staff who use the web interface.
  • Field employees working with the Customer Registration Android app.

Each user account is personal and provides access to:

  • The MicroPowerManager web interface.
  • The Customer Registration Android app.

Additionally, user accounts can be assigned to a cluster if the user’s responsibilities are linked to a specific operational cluster.

Access Control and administration

The MicroPowerManager web interface provides access to certain sensitive areas that are reserved for administrative tasks.

These include:

  • Managing company-wide settings.
  • Configuring tariffs and targets.
  • Adding new locations (villages, mini-grids, clusters).

The Android Apps, by design, do not include administrative capabilities. This ensures:

  • Enhanced security for sensitive operations.
  • A focused experience for field staff working on customer registration and data collection.

INFO

All administrative actions must be performed through the web platform. Field employees using the mobile apps do not have access to these protected areas.

Protected Pages Password

Access to sensitive areas on the web platform is protected by a Protected Pages Password. This password acts as an additional layer of security on top of standard user login credentials.

WARNING

Entering an incorrect Protected Pages Password will redirect the user back to the home page.

The Protected Pages Password is:

  • Set during company (tenant) registration.
  • Shared across all user accounts within the company.
  • Distinct from a user’s personal login password.

You can update this password at any time via: Settings → User Management in the web platform.
