User Security Settings Details

Have more questions? Submit a request

User security can be tailored to allow or deny access to different applications inside OASIS. All users who will be maintaining and utilizing an application must be set up with the appropriate security rights to do their job effectively. A user with administrative access will need to set up each user's security settings. Note: blank sections do not currently have a function.

1. Navigate to the Configuration page.

2. Select the Users page in the drop-down list.

3. Select the new.PNG button to create a new user or double-click on an existing user entry.

4. The "User Editor" window will appear.

5. Select the "Security" tab.
