P6 Professional requires that all users have a global profile. A global profile defines a set of privileges for access to global, or application-wide, information such as cost accounts, resources, and roles.
When P6 Professional is connected to a P6 EPPM database:
To control user access to global information, you create global profiles using P6, and then assign specific profiles to individual users.
To allow complete access to all global information and all projects (assuming all applicable options have been applied using P6), you can assign a global profile called Admin superuser. You can assign the Admin Superuser profile to as many users as you like. However, since the Admin Superuser profile enables access to all information, you would typically restrict the number of users to whom you assign this profile. You cannot edit the Admin Superuser security profile.
Note: Only an Admin Superuser can apply the Admin Superuser profile to a user.
