OnBase User Group Membership Administration

Is there a way to grant a user access to manage members of a give set of user groups?  Specifically, it would be great if I could identify the groups to which this user has the right to add and remove users so that the user doesn't have administration over all group access.  This would keep protections up against the user adding himself or someone else to groups they shouldn't have access to, especially those with other admin privileges

Hi @Nathan A ,

 

I believe that you are looking for the User Configuration | User Account Admin permission ...

This settings is in Config under User | User Groups | <select a group> | Configuration Rights | Users / User Groups tab.

 

Take care.

Thank you Adam,

 

Is there a way I can govern which user groups the user would have access to administrate?  I see where I can limit access to only groups the user is a member of.  But in this case, we don't want the user to be a member of all of the groups. We just want them to be responsible for maintaining the members as those groups will be assigned workflow tasks.

 

For context: we are a university and have unity forms that get submitted by employees.  The Department Chair or Dean groups are then assigned to review the forms.  We would like the HR person over the colleges to manage this specific set of groups and keep their membership updated when personnel change.

Hi @Nathan A .  My pleasure.

 

Aside from that option, you an also assign a user the User Group Administrator permission, but that would grant them access to administer users of ALL user groups.

Wouldn't this be a good use case for Workflow Approval Management?
