Administering Roles
As described in the SAS Intelligence Platform: Security Administration Guide, the User Manager in SAS Management Console provides roles and capabilities that can be applied to users. When a user profile is associated with a role, that user has access to the capabilities that are selected for that role in the User Manager.
Opening the User Manager displays roles for the following desktop applications:
-
SAS Management Console
-
SAS Add-In for Microsoft Office (see Registering Custom Tasks as Capabilities in the SAS Add-In for Microsoft Office)
-
SAS Enterprise Guide (see Default Roles and Capabilities for SAS Enterprise Guide)
-
SAS Web Report Studio (see the SAS Intelligence Platform: Web Application Administration Guide)
SAS Management Console provides two default roles: Advanced and Content Management. The following table describes the capabilities that are assigned to those roles by default. In the User Manager, you can change the capabilities of a role or add new roles with unique sets of capabilities.
