User Administrator role
Updated: 2008-11-14
Members of the User Administrator role can add users to or remove users from Planning Server and manage membership for the Modeler, Data Administrator, and User Administrator roles, but not the Global Administrator role.
Note
In Planning Business Modeler, members of the User Administrator role can add or remove Planning Server users from business roles and customize user permissions. However, only members of the Data Administrator or Modeler role can create business roles.
On the User Administrator Role page, users who currently belong to the role are listed in the User ID column next to the appropriate application or model site. Except for the Global Administrator role, which has a system-wide scope, administrative roles have either an application scope or a model-site scope. Application scope permissions apply for all model sites in the application. Model-site scope permissions apply only for the specific model site.
You must belong to the Global Administrator or User Administrator role to add users to or remove users from the User Administrator role. Before you can add a user to any Planning Server role, the user must first be added to Planning Server from the Users page.

On the User Administrator Role page, select the scope of the role.
To add a user who has application scope permissions, under User Administrator Role: Applications, select the appropriate application.
To add a user who has model-site scope permissions, under User Administrator Role: Model Sites, select the appropriate application in the drop-down list, and then select the appropriate model site.
