Click the + sign in the lower left corner to add a new account. Then input the account details and sect whether or not the account is an administrator.

After you create the account, select it and click next to the password field. This pulls up a popup where you input all the password and logon details. Click Change to complete this step.

If you select the - in the lower left corner it will delete the account and you will be prompted whether or not to keep the files.
