Configure security settings using the BCC Organizations and Roles section. You must have BCC administrator rights to add users and roles. Use the BCC to add the appropriate direct access rights to each organization or role or user.
Refer to the ATG Business Control Center User's Guide for more information about working with the BCC.
Note: It may be necessary to assign additional roles if using other ATG Service applications (ATG Knowledge, ATG Self Service, and ATG Commerce Service Center). Refer to the ATG Installation and Configuration Guide for more information about access rights and user roles required to work with the ATG Service Center.
