Granting Users Administrative Access

To grant a user administrative access, you must perform the following steps.

1. Assign the user to the required databases (either directly or by role). Model administration also requires the user to belong to the ADM user class. To know more, see Configuring Databases for User Accounts.
2. Assign the user as an administrator to the required subject areas (either directly or by role). To know more, see Configuring Subject Areas for Roles and Configuring Subject Areas for User Accounts, respectively.
3. Assign the user the required privileges (either directly or by role). To know more, see Working on User Roles and Working on User Accounts, respectively.

The privileges that are required for accessing a particular administrative component are listed at the beginning of the corresponding chapters in this guide.

4. Enable the required administrative components in the user’s portfolio. To know more, see Administering Portfolios.
