Make a user a system user

Create additional system users. Having more than one system user can avoid problems, if, for example, your single system user has forgotten his password.

Prerequisite

You have the User administrator function privilege. If all users including the system users are deleted, use the superuser. The superuser cannot be deleted.

Procedure

  1. Click Application launcher Application launcher > Administration Administration. ARIS Administration opens.

  2. Click User management User management. The list of users is displayed.

  3. Click the relevant user. The user data is displayed.

  4. Click Edit Edit.

  5. Click Privileges. The list of function privileges is displayed.

  6. Enable all check boxes.

Now, the user is a system user. The system user has all function privileges. This user can log in to Process administration Process administration, ARIS Administration, User Management, and ARIS Process Board. In ARIS Architect and ARIS Designer, this user has all access privileges for all database groups of all databases.

If your only system user was deleted accidentally, create a new one by using the superuser.

Make a user a system user for a specific database

System users have all function and access privileges in a database. To be on the safe side, create additional system users besides the system user system.

  1. Click Application launcher Application launcher > Administration Administration > Configuration Configuration > Databases.

  2. Selected items Select the database and click Properties Properties > Access privileges Function privileges.

  3. Click Users and use the filter to navigate to the related user that you want to make a system user for this database.

  4. Enable the System user check box.

The user receives all function and access privileges for this database. This changes the privileges in ARIS only. The function privileges of a user in ARIS Administration are not affected.

To reject system user privileges, clear the respective check boxes. If the Database administrator function privilege was assigned to a user in ARIS Administration, this user has full access to all databases of the tenant. For such users, you cannot disable the System user check box. System users can only revoke privileges from users that are system users in single databases.
