What is user management?

User management is a system you can use to determine what permissions a user will get and what devices this user will get to execute these permitted actions for. The infographic depicted below shows how our user management system works. Our user management system consists of three core elements. They are defined in the table below.

The role of a user will determine what a user can do. This is partly regulated through permissions for our apps, and partly through permissions to use the pages and services in an access category. Groups put users and devices together. This determines the devices for which a user can execute his or her permissions. The info-graphic depicted below illustrates the relationships between users, devices and our user management system.
