User

Each person in your organization that retrieves documents from Content Manager OnDemand or administers part of the system must log on to the library server with a Content Manager OnDemand User ID. Content Manager OnDemand makes sure that the userid is valid on the server and uses it to determine the types of things that the user can do. A Content Manager OnDemand userid does not necessarily have to identify an individual by name. However, for accounting purposes, you probably want to assign a Content Manager OnDemand userid to each person that uses Content Manager OnDemand.

When you define a user to Content Manager OnDemand, you create a userid that a person can use to log on to the system. When you add the user, you specify the User Type, which determines the basic things that the user can do. You can also specify an Authority, to let the user do other tasks. For example, a User Type of User can be permitted to create users. You can also assign the user to a group and specify permissions to application groups and folders when you add the user to Content Manager OnDemand.

Note about IBM® i servers: An IBM i user profile must exist for each Content Manager OnDemand user, including the default administrative user.
