Understanding Security

This section discusses:

User Profiles, Roles, and Permission Lists

You assign roles to user profiles. Roles link user profiles to permission lists, which group authorizations.

Permission lists store sign-on times, page access, PeopleTools access, and so on. You can assign multiple roles to a user profile, and you can assign multiple permission lists to a role.
