Procedure

  1. In the Users application on the List tab, select the user records for which you want to specify security profiles.
  2. Select the Set Security Profile action.
    In the Set Security Profile window, the User Count field displays the number of users that you selected.
  3. In the Set Security Profile window, select whether you want to add, remove, or replace groups.
  4. Click New Row and specify a group.
  5. In the Update User Defaults section, select the Edit check box for the default settings that you want to specify.
  6. Specify settings for default insert site, use default insert site as a display filter, storeroom site for self-service requisitions, and default storeroom for self-service requisitions.
  7. Click OK.

Results

The number of records that you updated is not always the same as the number in the User Count field. A record is not updated unless the change affects the current security profile. For example, if the security profile for a user contains groups A and B and you add group A, then the record for the user is not updated.
