Security groups

About this task

Partner Manager enables you to define groups with security permission attributes and assign users to those groups. Assigned users log into Partner Manager.

Note: From the Help menu, select About Partner Manager to view the current User ID and Security Group.

Defining security groups enables you to configure default sets of permissions that you can then assign to one or more Partner Manager users. You can use the security profiles provided, or adjust the access selections to fit your needs.

You can add, edit, and delete security groups. You then define and add users to security groups.

Partner Manager provides three suggested levels of group permissions. You can use the following as a template for your security needs:

  • Administrator - Provides full permission to security, purge and archive, EDI wizard, access, create, edit, and resend functions
  • Power User - Provides Administrator permissions, except for security and purge/archive functions
  • Read Only - Provides access-only permissions for Trading Partner, Application Partner, Post Offices, Inbound Trade Links, and Outbound Trade Links information
