This term has two uses:

Human users

An Operator ID instance is the saved object in the Data-Admin-Operator-ID class that defines a user's name, password, access group, organizational setting, calendar, and other values. Informally, the term Operator ID refers to the key field of that data instance, equivalent to a user name in other software settings.

Operators are also called simply users or caseworkers. (In some organizations, operators are called agents, customer service representatives or CSRs.)
