This menu is used in conjunction with the Group Management window. See Admintool. If some of the buttons are grayed out, it means that you need to select a group in the Group Management window.
When we create or modify a group, we have access to all its properties:
Name of the group, knowing that the default group cannot be renamed.
there are 2 possible types of users.
The available types depend on the license.
Allows to launch Vigilens without the login window being displayed, if the Windows user name corresponds to the Vigilens user name.
You can also assign a different mail server and/or a different sender name for this group than the default server.
The mail server can be set at the user level, in which case it takes precedence over what is set at the group level.
Specifying mail settings at the user level allows you to have a personalized return address.
Unchecking one or both checkboxes opens the entry to the parameters specific to this group.
This is where you define which Vigilens applications a group can access. You can see that for each right, there is a contextual help in the top right corner.
If one of these boxes is checked at the group level, it will also be checked at the group user level and will not be uncheckable.
There are 2 times out:
These notions of time-out can be defined at different levels:
These times must necessarily be smaller and smaller when switching from group to user and then user to query.
Because SQL time out is managed at the database system level, it is not available on all platforms.
It may be useful to block certain groups from accessing certain sensitive company information. It is possible to prohibit the use of a data source by unchecking it in the list. For each datasource, Vigilens can impose restrictions on :
The button Default restrictions…
gives you access to settings that are valid for all data sources that do not have specific settings. The sequence of the screens is similar in every way to the settings for a particular data source.
Generally speaking, all of the following restrictions work on either as black list or white list system: either you make explicit which items are prohibited and everything else is allowed, or you make explicit which items are allowed and everything else is prohibited. Black list/White list operation is defined at group level and cannot be changed at user level.
you can:
If the data source is JDE/World, we have in addition the choice to use the JDE security associated with a user and one of his roles (or all roles with the value “*ALL”).
This setting allows you to :
Allows you to change the languages (of the interface and of the descriptions coming from the database) of all the users present in the group.
