User Roles

The ODM administrator is responsible for creating Object Data Management roles and for assigning these roles to users.

To maintain the list of ODM user roles

Roles with a high authorization role have unrestricted access to all objects in ODM. Only LN super users have the authorizations to make or create a high authorization role and to assign objects and their associated actions to this high authorization role.

To add the new role in the Roles (tcppl0160m000) session, take the following steps:

  1. Click New on the File menu. A new record appears.
  2. Enter a name for the new role, and optionally, a description.
To assign roles to users

To assign roles to users, on the Object Data Management menu, double-click ODM Configuration > Authorizations > Roles by Employee.

The Roles by Employee (tcppl0170m000) session appears which provides the list of all roles that are assigned to the user whose employee code appears in the upper part of the session:

To assign the additional role to the displayed employee, take the following steps:

  1. In the Roles by Employee (tcppl0170m000) session, on the File menu, click New. A new record appears.
  2. Use the browse arrow to open the Roles (tcppl0160m000) session and either select an existing role or create a new role. Only LN super users have the authorizations to add or remove high authorization roles.
  3. List and assign roles for a separate employee: in the Roles by Employee (tcppl0170m000) session, click Next Group and Previous Group, or click Find to locate the required employee.
  4. Assign roles to an employee to whom no roles have been assigned: click New Group in the Roles by Employee (tcppl0170m000) session, and click the browse arrow to select the required employee.
