User Change on Windows Server Essentials Workstation

We are having a staff member change in our office. Our office network consists of a small group of workstations and a server running Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials.

The workstation in question is already joined to the network (the computer itself is). This machine shows properly shows the Client Connector for Windows Server Essentials in the Programs list in the Control Panel.

Do we need to do anything other than create the new user on the network via the Dashboard? Should I also create an admin level account for the new user on the local workstation?

The workstation has Windows 10 Pro for its OS. It looks like all we have to do is to have the new staff member login under her name, rather than logging in via the departed employee's credentials (user ID and password).

Please let me know if I am overlooking any additional steps that need to be implemented.

Thanks very much for your assistance with this.
