Assigned User Groups Subtask

Use this subtask to link one or more user groups to a user. You are not required to link a user group to a user.

The most efficient way to set up security rights for users is to first establish rights for user groups. Then, if necessary, you can use the Module Rights subtask on this screen to override group rights for this user at the module level. If you choose, you can assign rights at the application, result set, or action/report rights by result set levels.

You can assign one or more user groups to a user on this screen or you can assign users to a user group using the Manage User Groups screen.

Use this screen whenever you want to link one or more user groups to a user. Before you can use this screen, you must set up the following screens:

• You must set up user group information on the Manage User Groups screen. Because you can establish security rights to each user group, a user assigned to a specific user group inherits the security rights of that user group.
• You must set up companies using the Set Up Company screen.

The rights cannot be used unless manually overridden using the Manage Segregation of Duties Conflict Overrides application. Delete Conflict: This status indicates that an attempt to delete this right has failed, since deleting the rights record would cause one or more segregation of duties conflicts.
