Add User Groups

This section enables the administrator to configure the security levels for each work group.

Radio buttons enable you to view the group and assign access rights for several specific sections of the case form, menu, case workflow, and report workflow.

If a user belongs to multiple groups, the access rights for the user will be a combination of the highest access level permissions for each individual group. Consider the following example:

John Smith is an Oracle Argus Safety user and his profile has been added to two user groups with different access level permissions for each group.

• John has access rights to the Patient tab in one group and access rights to the General tab in another group.
• In this case, John will be able to access both the Patient and the General tabs of Oracle Argus Safety.

Use the following procedure to create a user group

1. Click Access Management > Argus > Groups.
2. Select the filtering criterion to display the list of Groups or Users in the left pane.
3. Select a Group and click to view the group details in the right panel.

   Tip:

   • You can alternatively click Add Group to create a new group.
   • Use Copy to make an editable copy of an existing group.
   • Use Delete to delete a group.
4. Enter the Group Name. This should be a unique name associated with this Group.
5. Enter the Email address, if applicable.
6. Enter the Supervisor Email address, if applicable.
7. In the Case Form section, select the desired access right option (Modify, View, or No Access) for the group's access to each of the listed items of the Case Form.

   Note:

   To save a case, the following fields must be populated: Initial Receipt Date, Country of Incidence, Report Type, Suspect Product, and Event Description as Reported. Therefore, the group responsible for initial case entry must have access to these fields to save new cases.

8. In the Menus section, enable or disable access of the group to particular items in the Oracle Argus Safety menu.

   Tip:

   Refer to the Oracle Argus Safety User's Guide for information about the functions of the Case Form sections and the menu items in the Oracle Argus Safety user interface.

9. In the Listedness Determination section, select a list of countries. This enables the end user to override the listedness determination in the Event Assessment section of the Case Form for product licenses that match the countries selected in this step.
10. In the Advanced Conditions section, select No Access to Create Advanced Condition, No Access to Share Advanced Conditions, and/or No Access to View and Edit SQL.

    Note:

    Only trusted users should be given access to Advanced Conditions, because users who have this access will have complete access to the information in the Oracle Argus Safety Schema.

    Tip:

    • If you select No Access to Create Advanced Condition, Advanced Conditions does not appear as an option for that user group.
    • If you select No Access to Share Advanced Conditions, the user group does not have access to share advanced conditions.
    • If you select No Access to View and Edit SQL, the SQL... button does not appear as an option for that user group.
11. In the Restrictions section, select Products.
12. To open the Available Products dialog box, click Add Product.
13. Select each product you want to add and click OK.
14. In the Restrictions section, select Study.
15. To open the Available Studies dialog box, click Add Study.
16. Click the appropriate checkboxes to select the required studies and click OK.
17. Click OK to save the group.

Note:

If you haven't selected any products or studies, the group will have access to all products or studies.
