Setting Up a News Topic Administrator


The Content Services news packages are set up by the administrator in the News Topic Manager view. The administrator determines what news packages are available to which employees. The administrator also can create news topics for each news package, which are available for end users who have access to the news package. News topics are predefined searches that the end users can choose from. Examples of news topics include headline stories from the New York Times, software, or a company name, such as Siebel Systems.

The News Topic Manager view is an administrative view accessed with the SADMIN responsibility. You can create your own responsibility for a News Topic Administrator who can access this view.
