Before you create your own profiles, it is recommended to start with some preliminary considerations:

  • How many users should be administrators for your Scheer PAS Administrationwill you grant administration rights?
  • Does a user need administrations rights for all PAS components or is it enough to give him permissions for selected components?
  • Consider the use of naming conventions. They may help to maintain a good overview over the list of profiles.
  • Where is the best place to manage the naming conventions, so that all administrators have access?
Tip

Use standard prefixes to organize the list of profiles, for example it_ for profiles of the IT department, hr_ for the human resources department etc.
