Navigation:  Installing OfficeStatus Server > Guided Installation Steps > Creating an OfficeStatus Admin Account

OfficeStatus Server requires that at least one administrative user account exists so that the system can be managed once it is fully established.

 

This step of the installation process asks for the administrative user account details, including the user name, first and last name, password, etc.

 

IMPORTANT: The OfficeStatus administrative username and password you specify in this step will be used to sign into the OfficeStatus web interface for the first time (and subsequently used to perform administrative functions, etc.).

 

You can also enter the SMTP address of a mail server that OfficeStatus Server can use to send outbound notification email messages (among other things). This step is optional, and can always be configured later from within the administrative section of the OfficeStatus web interface.
