Selecting a user's system roles

A system role is a collection of permissions allocated to a user to control the management tasks they can and cannot perform for the network in the RM Management Console. For example, an advanced user can access different parts of the system than a standard user.

To select a user's system roles

  1. From the left-hand pane, expand Picture of the Users icon Users and choose All Users.

  2. From the right-hand pane, right-click the user and from the menu, choose Properties.

  3. On the General tab, tick or clear one or more 'System roles' boxes.

  4. Click OK.

Notes

  • The system roles available depend on the user's rights and on other software installed on your network, such as the availability of Exchange Server.

  • Not all system roles have associated permissions.

  • You can only assign to other users the system roles assigned to yourself.

  • You can use the same process to manage multiple users in the same folder. First, select all of the users that you want to manage. When the selected users have different system roles, the boxes are tri-state.

  • User properties are also available by selecting the user and choosing Picture of the Properties button in the toolbar, or by double-clicking the user in the right-hand pane.

  • You can also set this user property on a template.
