Region Settings
The Region Settings pane allows the system administrator to define which regions the user can access. A region is a group of properties that have something in common, such as geographical proximity or similarity in function (for example, the Asia-Pacific region or the Midwest Retail Outlets region). Granting access to a region grants access to each property within the region.
To grant the user access to a region:
-
Click SELECT REGION.
-
Search for and select the region you want to grant access to.
The selected region opens in the Current Regions pane.

-
Select either All Requests or Restricted from the menu.
Selecting All Requests grants the user access to all requests created on any property in the region. Selecting Restricted restricts the user to accessing only those requests created by or assigned to that user.
Note:If rights are assigned to both regions and properties within a region, Restricted region rights override any rights set at the property level.
-
Click UPDATE.
If you want to delete a region from the list of regions this user can access, click the DELETE button to the right of the region name.
You can only delete a user's access to a region that you also have access to. If a user was granted access to a region that you do not have, no DELETE button will be displayed.
Property Settings
The Property Settings pane allows the system administrator to define which properties a user can access and which property is the user's default property.
Each user must be granted access to at least one property to be able to log on to the system. It is not sufficient to grant the user access to a region; at least one specific property must be selected.
To grant the user access to a property:
-
Click SELECT PROPERTY.
-
Search for and select the property you want to grant access to.
The selected property is displayed in the Current Properties pane.
-
If you want to designate the property as the user's default property, click the Set as Default link.
The default property is the one that is selected for this user, by default, on certain pages where a property can be selected, for example, Create Request or Create Schedule.
-
In the first field, select the user's default space within this property.
The default space is the one that is selected for this user, by default, on certain pages where a space can be selected, for example, Create Request or Create Schedule.
-
If the full space hierarchy is enabled, a second menu is available to select the user's default subspace.
-
Select either All Requests or Restricted from the second menu.
Selecting All Requests grants the user access to all requests created on any property in the region. Selecting Restricted restricts the user to accessing only those requests created by or assigned to that user.

-
Click UPDATE.
If you want to delete a property from the list of properties this user can access, click the DELETE button to the right of the property name.
Department Settings
Departments Settings pane allows the system administrator to define which departments a user is affiliated with. Since spaces can be allocated to a department (either through Space Categorization or Complex Allocations), granting access to a department grants the user security right to all spaces allocated to that department.
To search a user’s associated departments:
- In theSearch Associated Departmentsfield, type a search value.
-
ClickFind.
The page displays the matching results and hides all other department associations.
If a user has more than fifty department associations, departments are listed on multiple pages. To use the pagination feature, click the page number you want to view or clickNextto navigate to the next page of department associations.
To affiliate a user with a department:
-
Click SELECT DEPARTMENTS.
The Add Departments dialog box opens allowing you to search for and select departments.
-
Enter search criteria (department number or description) and click FIND.
A list of the departments that match your criteria appears. If a department is preceded by a small triangle, it is a parent department with one or more child departments. Click the triangle to expand the list.
Note:If your installation has parent-child department hierarchies defined, associating a parent department with a user automatically associates all child departments with that user as well. If you do not want to associate one or more child departments, you must expand the parent department in the Add Department dialog box and explicitly deselect the unwanted child departments.
-
Select the check box to the right of each department you want to associate with the user.
If you select a parent department, all child departments are also selected, by default.
-
If you want to designate the department as the user's default department, click the Set as Default link.
The selected department is set as the user's default department and is moved to the top of the list. Designating a department as a user’s default department is used informational purposes. If a user is granted security rights to several departments, the default department can be used to indicate the actual department the user is a member of.
-
Click SAVE.
The selected departments are added to the list of current departments.
If you want to delete a department association from the list, click the DELETE button to the right of the department name. If you delete an association with a parent department, only that department association is deleted. Any associations with child departments remain in the list.

Activity Groups are used to group and organize request types and control user access to them. The Activity Groups pane allows the system administrator to define which activity groups a user can access.
Administrators that have not been granted the Associate Users to Activity Groups security right in Additional Administrator Rights security rights pane can view a user's activity group settings but cannot modify them.
Granting access to an activity group allows a user to create requests, perform searches, and run reports on the request types included in that group. It also controls the types of requests that can be assigned to a user, if the Allow Assignment option is enabled.
To grant the user access to an activity group:

-
Click ADD.

If you select No, this user can create requests of the selected types, but cannot can be assigned requests of the selected types.
-
Select either All Requests or Restricted from the second menu.
Selecting All Requests grants the user access to all requests of the types included in that activity group in any property or region that the user has access to. This allows the user to view the requests on the My Requests page or search for these requests on the Find Request page. Selecting Restricted restricts the user to being able to create requests of the type in this activity group only.
-
Click UPDATE.
If you want to delete an activity group from the list of activity groups this user can access, click the DELETE button to the right of the activity group name.

Security Rights Settings
Module security rights establish which application modules a user has permission to access, and further define which functions within a module the user can perform. Module security rights can be granted using a security profile or by selecting individual rights for a particular user.
Security Profile
Using a security profile grants an established set of rights to a user. A security profile establishes the module security rights only; it does not change the regions, properties, or other entities that the user has access to.
Using a security profile provides the following advantages:
You can ensure that all users at a particular level or job function have the same set of rights.
If you add or delete rights from a security profile, those changes are propagated to all users that use that security profile.
You do not have to select or clear dozens of check boxes on the User Security page individually to establish a user's security rights.
Note:You can create a security profile based on the rights established in any user account by selecting Yes in the Security Profile field on the Edit User page. For more information, see Edit a User.
To use a security profile:
In the Security Profile field, select the name of the security profile you want to apply to this user.
Click USE SECURITY PROFILE .
All of the module security right check boxes are updated to correspond to the rights associated with this profile.
Note:If you save this security profile to this user's account by clicking UPDATE, any previous security rights established for this user will be discarded. If you exit the User Security page without updating, the previous security rights will be restored.
Click UPDATE.
