To set up user proxies as an administrator through secadm

  1. For the user who needs a proxy, examine the roles that user has to determine which should be added to a proxy. Also, determine which roles are proxyable and change that setting if necessary. To see a user's roles, navigate in the Infor Rich Client to the User Management application, then to Actor Management, where you can select an actor and view the detail for the actor, or use the secadm report userpolicy actor . To check the proxyable setting for a role, navigate in the Infor Rich Client to the User Management application, and then to Role Management.
  2. Create a proxy. At a Landmark command prompt, type

    secadm proxy addproxy proxyName grantorName [description] [isProxyEnabled] [fromDate] [toDate]

    Consider the following parameters:

    Parameter Descriptions
    proxyName A name for the proxy.
    grantorName The name of the actor whose access privileges need to be granted to another actor temporarily.
    description A description for the proxy.
    isProxyEnabled Whether the proxy is enabled. The default is disabled. Use true or false to enable or disable a proxy. The default is true. (For the grantee to switch to the grantor's access privileges, the proxy must be enabled and the current date must fall within the from and to dates.)
    fromDate The first date the proxy is in effect.
    toDate The last date the proxy is in effect.
  3. Assign roles to the created proxy. For each role you want to add, at a Landmark prompt, type

    secadm proxy addrole proxyName grantorName role

    Consider the following parameters:

    Parameter Descriptions
    proxyName The name of the proxy you want to add a role to.
    grantorName The name of the actor whose access privileges need to be granted to another actor temporarily.
    role The role to add to the proxy. You must type a role that is currently assigned to the grantor and is proxyable.
  4. Assign the proxy to a grantee. For each grantee you want to assign to the proxy, at a Landmark prompt, type

    secadm proxy assign proxyName grantorName actor

    Consider the following parameters:

    Parameter Descriptions
    proxyName The name of the proxy you want to assign to an actor (grantee).
