Assigning Groups and Roles in Oracle Utility Analytic Insights
User environment access is managed through the Add Group and Add Role functions located in the Mange Users pane.
Add Group: Determines general user interface characteristics (for example, the menus that are displayed) and, consequently, which pages are accessible to the user and sets of users.
Add Role: Assigns user roles and determines the features that are available on the pages made available by the user's group privileges.
Roles are associated with modules. Assigning a role automatically associates the user to a module. The following table provides an example of possible user role to module associations. See the Oracle Utilities Analytic Insights User Guide (https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E72219_01/documentation.html) for more information.

Most end users have access to environments with Explore and Export functionality based on their group assignment. The features available for the user on the Explore and Export pages are determined by their role. For example, a user with a Billing role in the Meter to Bill module has 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. They are not configurable by the customer.
