Managing Person Groups Rather than Persons

To facilitate management, instead of managing persons individually, you can manage them by person group.

Example: the group of auditors.

Configuration does not take place at the person level but at the group level.

Persons belonging to a group:

• depend on the same environment.

• share the same connection characteristics defined by the profile of the group and its assignment.

see Before Defining a User: Profile and Person Group Concepts.

see Description of a Profile.

• connect to the application with their login.

• share the assignments defined for the group.

See Assigning a Profile to a Person Group.

• share the characteristics defined for the group (e.g.: access rights, data language).

see Person Group Properties.

see Properties of a Person Group Login.

When a person belongs to a person group, the person cumulates the profiles assigned to him/her to the profiles assigned to the person groups he/she belongs to. The person connects through the group or via his/her profile assignments defined on his/her person.

A person can belong to one or more groups.

You can:

• connect a person to a person group, individually, directly on creation of the person.

See Creating a User.

• connect more than one person to a person group simultaneously:

See Adding persons to a person group.
