Using the PeopleSoft Administrator Role

The PeopleSoft Administrator role gives full access to all folders and content reference definitions in the portal registry -- that is, a user with the PeopleSoft Administrator role can navigate to all menu folders and menu items in the portal registry even if the portal registry security settings do not specifically include this user or role. In addition, the PeopleSoft Administrator role gives full access to menus and pages in the PSAUTHITEM table.

The PeopleSoft Administrator role cannot be viewed, edited, modified, or cloned because it is not defined as other roles are defined. The PeopleSoft Administrator role is hard-coded into every application. You will not find this role if you search for it in the roles component.

Note: The PeopleSoft Administrator role does not have access to data. Data security is granted through the primary and row-level permission lists assigned directly to a user profile.
