Change multiple function, license, and database privileges for user/user group

Assign the relevant function, license, and database privileges to allow usage of specific programs and functions. Product-specific privileges are assigned in each ARIS product.

There are certain license privileges that you cannot assign to a user in combination with others. For example, you cannot assign ARIS Architect and ARIS Designer to a user at the same time.

You can only activate the subgroups of a license privilege if the superior license privilege is activated. If you remove a superior license privilege of a user, the user also automatically loses the assignment to the subgroups.

Prerequisite

You have the User administrator function privilege.
