Privileges dialog: User/Role tab

Use this tab to configure specific privileges for users and roles. For example:

to look at which users and roles have Administration privileges
to check that a group of roles have the Save Workbooks to Database privilege
to revoke drill out privileges for specified users

Note that Oracle Applications users have responsibilities instead of roles.

For more information, see:

"How to specify a user or role (responsibility) to perform a specific task"
