Provisioning users

Your ability to create a new user, modify user accounts, and copy access from one user to another is based on your administrative permissions and the way user provisioning is configured in your system. The user-provisioning options that you see in the product are determined by your permissions and configuration.

You can delegate administrative capabilities to specific administrators to give them the ability to perform certain user-provisioning functions. For example, you could delegate permission to two administrators to manage user passwords, and delegate permission to three other administrators to create users and update group memberships.

For information about which administrator permissions are required for each of the user-provisioning functions, see Table 1.
