Use of Resource Profiles

Resource profile maintenance is typically the responsibility of the resource manager and the resource. The unique security specifications for each PeopleSoft user role determine whether a user can modify only the user's own profile or view and modify other resource profiles. You can control the list of roles with permission to modify resource profiles.

This table lists the folder navigation paths that access the resource profile:

Navigation Description

Resource Management, Maintain Resource Profiles, My Profile

Used by resources to view and modify their own profile information.

Resource Management, Maintain Resource Profiles, Profiles

Used by resource managers or other users with appropriate access to view and modify a resource's profile.

Resource Management, Maintain Resource Profiles, Review Profiles

Used by staffing coordinators or other users with appropriate access to review a resource's profile.

The appearance of the Resource Profile component depends on the navigation path that you choose and the resource profile display options that are established in the Profile Display Options group box on the Installation Options - Resource Management page during implementation. The resource profile that appears when you view your own profile is the profile that is associated with your user login. To access profile information for other resources, you can select the profile by looking up the resource's name or employee ID.
