How to do it...

4. In the next screens, Alfresco asks you the details of the new user. The new user details form is divided into two main screens.

Note
There are some extra properties for the user provided by Alfresco such as Organization, Job Title, Location, Skype Id, and so on. These properties can be used for populating full user details in an organization.
The user's Quota also can be set up; this is useful to restrict how much space the user can consume by uploading contents in the repository.
