Password Generation

  • Lowercase letters
  • Numbers
  • Special characters (@#$%&*_-+!)
This password is sent to the user’s email via sendMail service.

Save and Send Credentials

Click Save to create the account. The user receives an email with:
  • Username
  • Generated password
  • Welcome information
If email delivery fails, the user is still created, but a warning toast is shown. Make sure to manually provide credentials to the user.

​

  1. Click the three-dot menu on the user row
  2. Select Edit from the dropdown
  3. Modify any fields in the user form
  4. Click Save to apply changes
When editing, the password field is not displayed or modified. Use the Reset Password function to change passwords.

​
User Actions

  2. Select Reset Password
  3. Confirm the action
  4. System sends recovery email using sendRecoveryPassword(email)
The user must have a valid email address for password reset to work.

​
Deactivate User

To deactivate a user account:
  1. Click the three-dot menu on the user row
  2. Select Deactivate
  3. Confirm the action
Deactivated users:
  • Cannot log into the system
  • Show estatus: "Inactivo" in the database
  • Remain in the system and can be restored
  • Are still visible when “Show Inactive” toggle is enabled

​
Restore User

To restore a deactivated user:
  1. Enable the Show Inactive toggle
  2. Find the deactivated user (shown with neutral chip)
  3. Click the three-dot menu
  4. Select Restore
  5. Confirm the action
The user’s status changes to Activo and they can log in again.

​
Bulk Deactivate

To deactivate multiple users at once:
  1. Check the boxes next to users you want to deactivate
  2. Click the Deactivate Selected button in the toolbar
  3. Confirm the bulk action
All selected users are deactivated simultaneously using Promise.all().

​
Searching and Filtering

The search functionality filters users by:
  • Name (nombre)
  • Email
  • Username
  • Role (rol)
  • Position (puesto)
  • City (ciudad)
Search uses normalized text matching (removes accents, case-insensitive).

​
Show Inactive Toggle

By default, only active users are displayed. Enable the Show Inactive switch to view deactivated users.

​
User Status Display

Users are displayed in a table with the following columns:
ColumnDescription
NameUser’s full name
UsernameLogin username
EmailEmail address
RoleAssigned role
CityUser’s assigned city
StatusActive (success chip) or Inactive (neutral chip)
ActionsDropdown menu with available actions

​
Row Selection

Users can be selected using checkboxes for bulk operations:
  • Click the header checkbox to select all visible users
  • Click individual checkboxes to select specific users
  • Selected count is displayed in the bulk action button

​
URL Parameters and Highlighting

The user table supports focus highlighting via URL parameters: 
/users?focus=<id_usuario>
/users?focus=<username>
When a focus parameter is present:
  • The matching user row is highlighted with primary color background
  • The page scrolls to bring the user into view
  • Highlight lasts for 4 seconds
  • Search is cleared and inactive users are shown

​
Data Loading

User data is loaded from three services in parallel: 
const [usersRes, ciudadesRes, supervisoresRes] = await Promise.all([
  getUsersService(),
  getCiudades(),
  getUserSupervisors(),
]);
This ensures fast page load times even with large datasets.

​
Error Handling

The user management interface handles several error states:

​
Network Errors

When the API is unreachable, users see:
  • Error icon with descriptive message
  • Retry button to reload data
  • Error detection using regex: /failed to fetch|network/i

​
Permission Errors

Users without ver_usuarios permission see:
  • Lock icon with “No Permission” message
  • Message to contact administrator

​
Session Verification

While verifying authentication session:
  • Loading spinner is displayed
  • “Verifying session” message shown

​
Best Practices

User Account Management
  1. Always assign appropriate roles and permissions
  2. Use meaningful usernames (avoid generic names)
  3. Ensure email addresses are valid and monitored
  4. Regularly review inactive users
  5. Document reason for user deactivation (if needed)
Security Considerations
  • Never share generated passwords through insecure channels
  • Immediately deactivate accounts for departing employees
  • Regularly audit user permissions and roles
  • Use the bulk deactivate feature carefully (it cannot be undone in one action)

​
Integration with Other Features

User management integrates with:
  • Permissions System: Assign granular permissions via the Permissions drawer
  • Email Service: Automatic credential delivery and password reset
  • Activity Logs: User actions are tracked in security logs
  • Cities & Locations: User location assignment for reporting
  • Supervisor Hierarchy: Organizational structure management
