To assign user access

Assigning user access determines what users in your region can see and interact with the resource. On the Assign Users to [resource] page, user access is indicated in the table by selecting or clearing check boxes for Associated with, which indicates who will receive notifications, Update Status, Run Reports, View Resources, and Administer Users.

1. If you are not already on the Assign Users page, point to Setup and on the menu, click Resources. On the Resource List page, locate the resource and on that row, click Users. The Assign Users page opens.

2. Locate the user or users, and select or clear the Associated with, Update Status, Run Reports, View Resources, and Administer Users check boxes to add or remove their access rights for the resource.

Keep the following in mind as you configure user access:

• You must select the View Resource right for at least one user or the resource will only be visible to administrators.
• If you want to grant Associated with, Update Status, Run Reports, or Administer Users rights for a user, you must also select the View Resource right.
• To grant a type of access rights for all users, select the check box in the column header.
• Filters and search options at the top of the Assign Users to [resource] page can be used to help you locate users by their currently assigned rights or by resource group, role, resource types, and username. You can also search for users by entering some of their personal info.
