Adabas Review administrators use the user profile system to generate profiles that define access rules for Adabas Review users. Access rules specify the functions that a particular user is allowed to use.
User profiles may be created for new users, changed for existing users, and purged when no longer required.
A user profile is not required for each user. Review provides a default profile to allow access for users who do not have a profile defined.
When a user logs on, Adabas Review searches for the user's profile. If one is not found, the default profile is used.
If the default profile is customized so that the access rules meet the needs of the majority of Adabas Review users, the need for individual user profiles can be eliminated.
If a user has access needs that are different from the majority, a user profile can be created to accommodate those needs. Such a profile is generated by customizing a copy of the default profile.
