Change User Roles

The user Role is an import concept in CA OM Web Viewer r12 and using different roles gives you varied abilities, permissions, and functions.

• Your current Role affects which Repositories and Reports you have access to in CA OM Web Viewer.
• Your Role can also affect the actions you are permitted to perform in CA OM Web Viewer such as printing, emailing, and so on.

The role you are currently using is listed at the top left side of the main CA OM Web Viewer pane to the right of your user ID.

For example, "Logged in as: jdoe @ Bank Teller Lvl III," means the user "jdoe" is logged in and the user’s current Role is Bank Teller Lvl III.

You can select and change your current role based at any time, if you are assigned more than one Role.

Follow these steps:

1. From the Configuration Tab, click the After Login option in the left pane.
2. Find the User Role drop-down list. Your current role is displayed in the text box.
3. Select the Role you want to use.

   All the Roles assigned to you are listed in this drop-down list. If you want to be added to another Role contact your System Administrator or Group Administrator.

   Note: Changing your current Role can reset your default Repository selection, if the Role you choose does not have access to the Repository you selected as your default.

4. Click Update at the top right corner of the pane.

   In some cases you can get logged out of CA OM Web Viewer and you will have to log back in.

   This can happen when two of your Roles are authenticated by two different authentication methods.
