Changing group permissions

To view or change the permissions that are assigned to the groups, follow these steps:
  1. Go to the groups page to display the list of groups.
  2. Locate the row for the group to be viewed or changed.
  3. Click the Permission Assigments icon, which looks like a key, in that row. The permission assignments page is displayed in edit mode unless the user does not have the permissions that are needed to change permissions for the group.
  4. From the applications list, select the component to update. The category list is updated to display the permission categories for the selected component.
  5. From the list of categories, select the permission category to work with. Each permission category has at least one permission. When a permission category is selected, the page updates to show the individual permissions available for that category. The Available permissions list displays the individual permissions that are not available to the members of the group. The Permissions assigned to group list displays the individual permissions that are available to the members of the group.
  6. To add permissions to a group, select the permissions to add from the Available permissions list and then click the right arrow. The permissions are moved into the Permissions assigned to group list. Multiple selections can be made in the list by pressing the control or shift keys as you select permissions.
  7. To remove permissions from a group, select the permissions to remove from the Permissions assigned to group list and then click the left arrow. The permissions are moved into the Available permissions list. Multiple selections can be made in the list by pressing the control or shift keys as you select permissions.
Note: Permission assignments take effect for a user only after the user logs on. When permissions are changed, any users who are logged on must log off and back on to see the effect of the changes.
