Users that have been assigned the role of a User Administrator (see "User Roles") can access the User Management through the Navigation menu in the top navigation bar. When doing so, the entry screen will show the User Dashboard, giving details about the current number of users, the distribution of analyst and viewer licenses and the license currently used for accessing CPM. From here, User Administrators can enter the two areas “Manage Users” and “Manage Groups” by clicking on the respective button in the top right corner of the entry screen.
Manage Groups
The utilization of user groups will help you to implement security and access regulations. Instead of administrating accesses to warehouses, cubes and analyses on an individual user basis, you will be able to reproduce your organizational structure and grant rights to several users at once. In order to be able to assign users to user groups, user groups need to be created at first. This can be done in the “Manage Groups” section.
After clicking on “Manage Groups” in the top right corner of the User Management entry screen, you will be forwarded to group management. On the left side, you will see a list of all the groups available at the moment. To create a new group, simply enter the group’s name in the respective field shown directly after entering the Manage Groups section and click on “Apply”.
To edit an already existing group or assign group members to it, select it from the group list on the left side. Afterwards, the group’s name will appear in the middle section and a list of all possible members available at the moment will appear on the right. If you want to change the group’s name, simply enter the new name and click on “Apply”. If you want to assign users, select the members you want to add from the member list and click on “Apply”.
