About TMS Users and User Groups

Use the Users/Groups feature to set up the first level of security in TMS.  The term "user" refers to the individual login ID used to log in to the application. The term "group" refers to a set of users who have similar security and roles within your organization.

Some Notes About Users/Groups Administration

• A User Name must be unique.
• Group Name must be unique.
• All groups have the System segment in their access list.
• The default segment of a group must be included in that group's segment list.
• You can't delete a group if it has users associated with it.
• Groups TMS do not need added as logins for SQL Server or given the proper permissions to the tables and views.

• When you add a new group, by default, menu security is set to Full access to all modules across all accessible segments.

• Other than the System segment, when you add a segment to an existing group, the System segment’s menu permissions should be copied to the new segment/group.

• A user can't login if they aren't active.

• A user can't be deleted if transactions by the user exist in the TMS database.
