Introduction

The User Profile and Master/Group Profile windows enable a user, a database administrator (DBA), or a SAS administrator to set up SAS/ASSIST User profiles at three levels: Master, Group, and User. It is not necessary for an installation to have all three levels. The Master/Group profile can be used to set correct standard values for lower profile levels, restrict options to certain values, and overwrite existing options at lower profile levels. When you select Tasks  Setup  Profiles  Master/group, the Master profile selection appears automatically in the Setup window, but it can be edited only by users who have write access to the SAS library that contains the Master profile. This chapter describes the Master/Group Profile window and how you use it to create and customize profiles.
