Use this screen to establish user groups and the modules and functions that each group can execute. Each user can override the modules and functions' settings established here in the Maintain User Override Rights screen.
The modules are listed in the order in which they appear on the Navigate screen.
You must establish at least one user group for each company before you can create any user ID in the Maintain Users screen.
Enter the group ID (maximum 10 characters) or use to select an existing group ID.
Using a maximum of 25 characters, enter the group name.
The ID of each module is displayed in this non-editable field.
The name of each module is displayed in this non-editable field.
Enter the group's rights to this module. Click in the field, then select one of these codes from the drop down list:
Select F to give the group full rights to this module.
Select N to give the group no rights to this module.
Select O to give the group optimistic partial rights. The group has full rights to the entire module, except for those functions specified in the Select Functions subtask.
Select P to give the group partial rights. The group has rights only for those functions specified in the Select Functions subtask.
Select R to give the group read-only rights.
When you set up a new group, the rights to all modules default to N. When Deltek adds new modules to Costpoint during version upgrades, the new modules default to N.
This non-editable field only displays if you also have Costpoint Web enabled and if the Enforce Segregation of Duties Rules check box is selected in the Corporate Settings subtask of the System Settings (Administration » Configure » System) screen in the Web version. One of the following status statements populates the field:
System Approved - The system has verified that there are no segregation of duties conflicts for this right
In Conflict - The system has determined that one or more segregation of duties conflicts exist for this right. The rights cannot be used unless manually overridden using the Override Segregation of Duties Conflicts application in the Web version of Costpoint.
Delete Conflict - An attempt to delete this right has failed, since deleting the rights record would cause one or more segregation of duties conflicts.
Manually Approved - The system has determined that one or more segregation of duties conflicts exist for this right, but the conflicts have been manually overridden.
Pending - An assigned right has yet to be checked for segregation of duties conflicts. The Identify Segregation of Duties Conflicts process must be run in the Web version of Costpoint before this assigned right can be used.
Delete Requested - An attempt to delete this right must be checked for segregation of duties conflicts. The Identify Segregation of Duties Conflicts process must be run in the Web version of Costpoint before this assigned right can be deleted.
If a group has been given partial rights (P) to a module, you can click this button to open the Select Functions subtask, where you can give the group the right to execute individual Costpoint functions within the module. If a group has been given optimistic partial rights (O) to a module, use the Select Functions subtask to select which individual Costpoint functions the user will not be able to use. Remember to highlight the module before clicking this button.
