User Administrator Authority - Assign/Remove

The first option on the Menu Rights tab is "Grant 'System Administrator' authority."  This option is typically used to temporarily give a person rights as SMGR, in the case that the usual SMGR is on vacation or out of the office.

To assign or remove a user's system administrator authority rights:

  1. Double-click Setup and Manage.

  2. Double-click User IDs to display the list of users on the right side of the window.

  4. Click on the Menu Rights tab to display it.

  5. Click on the Grant 'System Administrator' authority check box to assign it to the user.

    NOTE: A check mark indicates that the right has been selected. To remove System Administrator authority, click on its check box to remove the check mark.
