5.5.3 Setting Up OneWorld Users
Setting up users and groups can be time consuming, but you can do it easily
during the conference room pilot phase of the installation process. J.D. Edwards
recommends you set up one or two users to perform the installation process, then
set up the rest of your users and groups later when you have the time to consider
how you want groups to be organized and what preferences you want each group
to have.
The user profile defines a specific user or group to OneWorld. This description
includes:
• The group the user is with (such as accounting) and display preferences (such
as language). Groups are an important aspect of OneWorld. By assigning
users to groups, system administrators can define user preferences and
securities based on groups rather than the individual user.
• The packages from which the user can choose when installing OneWorld to
the client workstation.
• The environments from which the user can choose when starting a OneWorld
session.
About Group Preference Capability
Group preference capability eliminates the need to assign packages to each
individual user profile. By assigning individual users to a group, you can perform
package assignment once for the group and have those assignments available to
all of the individual users belonging to that group. If necessary, you can specify a
different package assignment for each user. In this case, the individual user
assignments override the group assignments.
Deployment and environment information is read first from the user’s individual
profile, and then, if no information exists, from the group’s information.
The following example clarifies this:
Table 13. Reading User’s Individual Profile
The results of the different user and group profiles are as follows:
• John has no assigned packages in his user profile. As a member of Group 1,
he has the CRP and TEST packages available.
• Jane has the assigned package PROD. Although a member of Group 2, the
assignments in her user profile override the group assignments.
