Re: [Gnumed-devel] Managing staff (user accounts)

[Jim Busser]

More to gradually work through…


I understand that the db account for a user (e.g. any-doc) must be unique 
however more than that it must be unique, I would expect that

1) once such an account has been created and associated with a person (staff) 
in GNUmed, we should not later be actually editing (or inviting to edit in the 
GUI with the help of the gm-dbo password) this db account name, should we? How 
can you have a trail when you allow the trail to stop, unless every clinical 
record is stamped with BOTH a

                unique gm db user account name

AND one among

        a unique alias (short name)
        a unique full name

and at least one of the above is never deleted nor altered. However in the 
"Edit staff list" widget it seems that any admin who knows gm-dbo can change 
BOTH the alias AND the db account name.
