Intranet’s system members.

maintaining and managing this application, is able to turn applications on or off within the Intranet.

Add and Assign User and Group Access Rights to the Application Administration area

 

If the System Administrator wants other System Members to have access to the Application Administration  

application, User or Group Access Rights must be assigned to it. 

 

Follow the instructions below to assign User or Group Access Rights to the Application Administration application.

 

Note: If you are not a System Administrator, you must have at least the Admin access right within this application to 

perform this function.  Contact your System Administrator or someone who has Administrator privileges in this area.

 

Note: When assigning User or Group Access Rights to the Application Administration application, the User or 

Group to be assigned must have at least the Read access right within the System Tools main section, before 

any access rights can be assigned to the Application Administration application itself. The following steps 

will take you through both functions.

 

1.       Within the Contents Browser, click on the lock located next to the System Tools section.

    

Note: If you are unable to perform step 1, then you are unable to assign User or Group access rights to the 

System Tools section.

Note: Make sure the User or Group that is to be assigned access rights is listed with at least the Read access 

right.  If the User or Group is not listed and must be assigned access rights, proceed to step 3. If the User or 

Group is listed with at least the Read access right, proceed to step 9.

 

3.       Click Assign User Rights or Assign Group Rights.

     

Note: The Assign Access Rights dialog appears.

     

4.       Check the checkbox next to the User(s) or Group(s) to be assigned Access Rights within the System Tools 

section.  These Users or Groups may then be assigned access to any of the Sections or Applications that exist 

below this section.

     

Note: You may check more than one User or Group, if they are to be assigned the same access rights.

 

5.       Within the User Permissions or Group Permissions area, check the Grant checkbox next to the appropriate 

Access Rights (Read, Post, Modify or Admin) that the User(s) or Group(s) is to have within this folder.  

    

Note: To assign these same User or Group Access Rights to all Sections and Applications that exist within the  

System Tools section, check the       Apply Access Rights to Section Contents checkbox on the dialog.  Users or 

Groups that must have different access rights within certain Sections and Applications must be manually changed.  

This is done by clicking on the Section or Application's lockwithin the Content Browser.

 

6.       Click Save on the dialog.

 

Note: The User(s) or Group(s) is now added to the list of Users within the Access Rights area with the assigned 

permissions visible.

 

Note: You may repeat steps 3 through 6 to continue to assign Users and Groups access rights within this section.

 

7.       If you would like to change the Access Rights assigned to the User once they have been added to this section, 

simply click on the User or Group within the list.

 

Note: The Permissions dialog for that User or Group appears with the current assigned access rights.

 

8.       Reassign the User or Group access rights and click Save on the dialog.

 

Note: The User or Group is now reassigned access rights within the list.

 

Note: The User or Group has now been assigned Access Rights within the System Tools folder, and can be 

assigned access rights within the Application Administration application or any other Application or Section 

that exists below the System Tools section.

 

Note: Proceed to assign the User or Group access rights within the Application Administration application.

 

Note: If you are not the System Administrator, you must have the Admin privilege in the User Administration  

application to assign User or Group Access Rights.

 

9.       Click the plus sign (+) next to System Tools.

10.  Within the Contents Browser, click on the lock located next to the Application Administration application,  

which is listed below System Tools.

 

Note: If you are unable to perform steps 9 and 10, then you are unable to assign User or Group access rights 

to the Application Administration application.

 

11.   Select the Access Rights tab.

 

Note: If no Users or Groups have been given access rights to the Application Administration application, there 

will be no Users or Groups listed.

 

Note: Users or Groups that have already been added to the Application Administration application may be 

viewed in several ways.  For example, click Show All to list both Users and Groups that have access; 

click Show Users to list only Users who have access; click Show Groups to list groups of Users who have access.

 

12.  If you would like to change the Access Rights assigned to the User, simply click on the User or Group within the 

      list.

 

Note: The Permissions dialog for that User or Group appears with the assigned access rights.

access rights by assigning them individual User rights to the Section or Application.

permissions visible.

 

 

 

 

Modifying Application Administration Properties

 

Here you are able to change the name of the Application Administration application, or choose another Icon for it. 

Both changes will be visible within your Content Browser.  The name you select for the Application Administration 

should be intuitive enough so that it is immediately recognizable.

it will not correspond with the Intra.Net™ Help Guide, which may create confusion when seeking help.

 

Note: If you are not the System Administrator, you must have at least the Admin access right within the User 

Administration application to perform this function.

application.
