Replacing User Security

To copy or assign Campus Solutions user security, use the User Security Replacement component (SCRTY_OPRID_REPLAC) or the Mass User Security Replacement component (SCC_MASS_SCRTY_UPD).

Copying a security setup is the same as going to each appropriate menu and entering data for each security object to assign security for a specific user. Replacement security automates the process for you by enabling you to copy a security profile either to another individual user or to several users in mass.

This section discusses how to:

Default Replacement User

To replace or create all of a user ID's security objects with the same security objects assigned to another user ID, specify the user ID whose security objects you want to copy in this field. When you exit the field, the system automatically copies each security object from the replacement user ID.

If you do not want to replace each of this user's security objects with all the security objects of one user ID, indicate the replacement user ID for each object that you want to replace. You do not have to replace all objects. For those objects that you do not want to replace, leave the field blank.

User Preferences

When you enter a user ID in this field, the default values that you set up in the User Default component for the entered user ID are assigned to the user ID, including the enrollment override defaults which assigns the Enrollment Access ID.

User defaults are set up in the User Defaults component.

See Entering User Defaults.

3C Group Security

When you enter a user ID in this field, the system also sets the values on the User 3C Group Summary page of the User Defaults component.

When you enter a user ID in any of the other fields on this page, the user ID is assigned the same security that you set up for the selected user ID for that item. All of these fields refer to the security that you set up on the pages in select Set Up SACR, then select Security, then select Secure Student Administration, then select User ID.

Access the Mass User Security Replacement page (select Set Up SACR, then select Security, then select Secure Student Administration, then select Process, then select Mass User Security Replacement, then select Mass User Security Replacement).
