Managing Roles and Capabilities

The enterprise edition of SAS Studio has one role, SAS Studio: Usage, with one capability, Access SAS Studio. Users who are assigned to this role have access to SAS Studio. Administrators assign users to this role by using SAS Management Console.
By default, members of the SASUSERS group are assigned this role, so all SAS users at your site should have access to SAS Studio. If you remove this role from the SASUSERS group, you can assign this role to individual users or groups.
To add a user or group to a role:
  1. Start SAS Management Console and connect as a SAS administrator (for example, sasadm@saspw).
  2. Create a metadata account for the user in SAS Management Console and associate that account with the operating system account. For more information, see Setting Up Users in the Metadata.
  3. In the User Manager, right-click the user and select Properties. The Properties dialog box appears.
  4. Click the Groups and Roles tab.
  5. Assign the user to the desired role.
  6. Click OK.
