NOTE: This help page is part of a multi-step procedure. If you need more background information on maintaining a user's groups, see the "Maintaining a User's Groups" topic.
This function is not applicable to Banner defined repositories.
The "Edit Groups" page enables you to add groups to and/or remove groups from a user's profile. This page appears after you have selected a user ID on the "Choose or Create a User" page and clicked the Groups button. As a reminder, the selected user ID is displayed in the page's title bar and in the dialog box. The groups that are already associated with the user appear in a scroll box near the top of the page.
1. Add groups to and/or remove groups from the user.
To add a group to the user's list:
Select (highlight) a group from the drop-down list box and click the Add button shown at left. (The list includes all the groups defined for the selected repository that have not yet been added to the user's list. For information on creating a group, see the "Maintaining User Groups (Overview)" topic.) The group is added to the user's group list, and a confirmation message is displayed. At next login, the user will be able to access reports associated with this group. If all of the groups have been added to the user's group list, the list box and the Add button will not appear on the screen.
To remove a group from the user's list:
Select (highlight) a group from the scroll box and click the Remove button shown at left. The group is removed from the user's group list, and a confirmation message is displayed. At next login, the user will no longer be able to access reports associated with this group.
2. Click the Done button.
After you have added and/or removed all the required groups, select the Done button. The system re-displays the "Choose or Create a User" page, so that you can continue your user maintenance tasks.
NOTE: Another way to associate a user with a particular group is via the "Edit Group" page. On that page, you select a group and then specify the group's users (whereas on this page, you select a user and then specify the user's groups). You can use the page that suits your requirements.
