Assign Users to a Security Group

Use the Users tab in the Security Group Manager to assign Users to a Security Group.

Good to know:

  • A User is (and must be) assigned to one and only one Security Group at a time. If you reassign an existing User to a Security Group, you will be removing that User from another Security Group.
    Note: The Security Group is stored in the User's Profile; therefore, you can assign a User to a Security Group when you edit a User Profile or when you edit a Security Group (below).

To assign a User to a Security Group:

  1. Open the Security Group Manager
  2. In the Group drop-down, select the Security Group for which you want to define rights (ex: Admin).
  3. Click the Roles tab.
  4. Click the Add button.

    The Add User to Security Group window opens, listing the available Users (Users not already in the Security Group).

  5. Click the User you want to assign to the Security Group or click the New User button to create a new User Profile.
  6. Click OK.

    Note: Click the Move To button to move a User from the Security Group to another Security Group; click the Import button to import a User from Windows or AD/LDAP.
  7. Click Save Save Button.
