How to grant rights to a user or group

In order to grant rights to a user or group, click on the Menu management section which opens the Authorization management page.

This page is divided into three sections: - Directories,

- Files,

- Access rights.

The Directories section allows you to select the menu to give access to. Each directory is linked with an authentication file (Files section). It is in this file that access to the corresponding menu is defined.

Main files:

- Root.menu.auth > All menus

- Format.menu.auth > Management of M-Designer formats

- Mapping Mapreport.menu.auth > M-Connect management

- Custom.menu.auth > Custom Menus

- Operation.menu.auth > Administration menu

- Files.menu.auth > File management

- Spooling.menu.auth > Job management

- Valid.menu.auth > User spools

To give access to a menu, select a directory, the authentication file is displayed. Click on it, the users as well as the groups who have access to this menu then appear in the Access rights section. To add a user or group click on the icon .

The following page opens:

- Users = Users or groups who do not have access to the menu,

- Permissions = Users or groups who have access to the menu.

For each menu, there is the possibility of checking the “Extend to the entire branch” box. If this box is checked, this gives users access to the menu being configured as well as all of its subdirectories.

Note:

This manipulation should be used with caution. Indeed, if you later want to go back, you will be forced to go back to all the subdirectories and delete the access of each user and group.
