Hierarchical Structure
To use a hierarchical user structure, you must create a hierarchical set of roles. You can then assign users to the roles.
To create a hierarchical user structure
-
Decide which groups you want to use to structure your users. You can, for example, group them according to roles and responsibilities.
-
Use the
RoleAddaction to create a role for each user group. For example:action=RoleAdd&RoleName=Sales
-
Use the
RoleAddRoleToRoleaction to create a hierarchical structure of roles. For example:action=RoleAddRoleToRole&RoleName=Sales&ParentRoleName=TeleSales
-
Use the
UserAddaction to create individual users. For example:action=UserAdd&UserName=JaneBrown&Password=Sesame
-
Use the
RoleAddUserToRoleaction to associate each user with a role. For example:action=RoleAddUserToRole&UserName=JaneBrown&RoleName=TeleSales
