Define Master Index Data Manager User Roles

Sun Master Index provides sample user roles for giving multiple permissions to a user at one time. You can define additional user roles and assign combinations of access permissions to each role. This way you can assign a user account to one or two user roles instead of assigning them several access permissions.

To Define a User Role

1. In the NetBeans Project window, expand the master index project and then expand Configuration.

2. Open midm-security.xml in an XML editor.

3. Define user groups and their permissions using the elements described in Master Index Data Manager User Role Properties.

   The permissions you can assign are listed and described in Master Index Data Manager User Permissions.

4. Save and close the file.

   You can use these roles when you create the user accounts, as described in Create Master Index Data Manager User Accounts.

5. Continue to Define EJB User Roles.
