Only a user with Administrator type profile has management rights. In particular, he/she is the only user who can modify user characteristics.

User management in the Administration application involves the following concepts:

• users:

A user is a person with a login and at least one profile assigned.

• persons

A person is defined by his/her name and electronic mail address.

• logins

A Login uniquely defines a user or user group. It can be assigned to only one Person or Person Group.

• profiles

A profile defines what a person can see or not see and do or not do in tools, and how he/she sees and can do it. The profile defines options, access rights to repositories and products, read/write and read-only rights on objects.

• permissions:

• object UI access

Object UI access defines user rights on creation, reading, update, and deletion on these objects and their tools. By default, object UI accesses have value *CRUD (C: create, R: read, U: update, D: delete, *: default value).

• general UI access

General UI access defines if tools are available or not. By default, general UI accesses have value *A (A: Available, *: default value)
