Granting Administrator rights

To make a user an administrator of all applications, and of the repository, assign the user to the group Administrators.

The Administrators group is assigned to all roles in all applications, and on the repository level.

The IFS standard role, BI Administrators, is automatically assigned to the Administrators group. See "IFS users and roles"

To make a user an administrator of a single application, make these assignments:

  • Assign the ViewRole to the user in EPM Administration. This enables the user to access the administration dashboards.
  • Assign the permissions that the user requires in the applications they are to manage.
    • Assign the AdministratorRole in the application if they are to manage permissions and administer the OLAP database.
    • Assign the MasterRole in the application if they are to have all permissions.
    • Create and assign custom administration roles as you require.
