How user administration works

Users of CloudSuite PLM for Fashion must be created in Infor Ming.le™ through Infor Federated Services (IFS). Every time a user is created in Infor Ming.le, the user is created in CloudSuite PLM for Fashion with the user ID and password that is specified in Infor Ming.le. The IFS security role that is assigned to the user in Infor Ming.le determines the primary role and permissions that the user has in CloudSuite PLM for Fashion.

When an Infor representative creates a user or role in IFS, a Sync SecurityUserMaster or SecurityRoleMaster BOD is created and subscribed by the application. All users and roles are sent to and stored in the application database.

You cannot create users for CloudSuite PLM for Fashion through this method. Only Infor representatives or the tenant administrator can create users in Infor Ming.le.

An Infor system administrator, created by Infor representatives in Infor Ming.le, serves as the initial user of the application. This user is then mapped to the system-defined application administrator that is responsible for user management and customization in the application. The application administrator can do these tasks in CloudSuite PLM for Fashion:

• Manage versions.
• Manage users, that is, update user information in the application.
• Define user permissions.
• Create roles.
• Create user groups.
• Define user views.
• Manage personalization for user-level personalizations.

When an application administrator modifies user information through the Admin Service module of the application, a Process SecurityUserMaster or SecurityRoleMaster BOD is created and sent to ION. From ION, these BODs are sent to IFS and the information is then synchronized in Ming.le. When an Infor representative creates a user or role in IFS, a Sync SecurityUserMaster or SecurityRoleMaster BOD is created andsubscribed by the application. All users and roles are sent to and stored in the application database.
