8.1 Administrator Users

PlateSpin Transformation Manager creates a System Administrator user account during the installation process, and assigns the user to the System Administrator role. This default user is initially responsible for creating user accounts and assigning roles to them, as well as creating organizations and groups. The System Administrator user has global privileges throughout the PTM Server Web Interface.

A trusted user can be elevated to be an Administrator user by being assigned as a member of the Administrators group. Members inherit the System Administrator role. Administrator users can perform tasks normally associated with the PTM System Administrator, such as configuring system-level settings for the PTM application; adding and removing users, groups, and organizations; managing user role assignments; and initiating projects.

NOTE:Any user account assigned the System Administrator role can perform any task for organizations or projects throughout the Web Interface.
