Administer User Page

The Administer Users page allows administrators to assign users to groups and roles, which determine the features that are available to them:

  • Group assignment: Determines general user interface characteristics (such as the menus that are displayed) and, consequently, which pages are accessible to the user.
  • Role assignment: Determines the features that are available on the pages made available by the user's group privileges. Roles are unique to modules so assigning a role automatically associates the user to a module.

For example, generally end users (non-power users) have access to environments with menus only for Explore and Export functionality based on their group assignment; what they see on the Explore and Export pages is determined by their role. A user with a Billing role in the Meter to Bill module, for example, will have different algorithms and panels on the Explore page than a user assigned to the Distribution Planning role in the Distribution Planning and Operations module.

Note: The user interface features defined for groups and roles are determined by licensing and implementation and are not configurable.
