Assigning Global Security Profiles

Every user is assigned a global security profile by default. You can change a global security profile for every user to control user access to application-wide information.

To change the user's global security profile:

  1. On the "" Navigation Menu, expand "" Administration and click User Administration.
  2. On the User Administration page, click Users.
  3. On the Users page:
    1. Select a user.
    2. In the Global Security Profile field, double-click and choose a profile from the list.

      Note:

      The assigned Global Security Profile will determine the location of the user in the Users tab hierarchy if they are grouped by the global profile.

    3. Click Save.

Tip:

  • You must have the appropriate privileges to assign security attributes.
  • An Admin Superuser is a global security profile that gives a user read/write privileges for application-wide information and features. The Admin Superuser always has access to all resources. If resource security is enabled, resource access settings are not applicable. To make global information read-only for a user, choose No Global Privileges. The No Global Privileges profile provides read-only access to all global data except costs and secure codes.
