Adding a User Group

User groups provide an intermediate level of security to workbooks that were created and saved by specific users. When new users are assigned to the system, they must be assigned to existing user groups. User groups should consist of individuals with similar job functions or responsibilities. In the Oracle Retail Predictive Planning Suite, the user group corresponds to the user's planning role.

To add a user group:

1. Under User Administration, click Add User Group. A Workbook Wizard window appears.

2. In the Workbook Wizard window, enter the relevant information into the following fields:

   • In the Group Name field, enter a name for the group.

     Note:

     Each group name must begin with a letter and contain only alphanumeric characters and underscores. It cannot have spaces. User group names are case sensitive.

   • In the Group Label field, enter a descriptive label for the group. This label is displayed when referring to the group throughout RPASCE.

3. Click Finish to add the user group to the database.
