Create Users
- Before creating users, first create permission sets or familiarize yourself with the permissions for each permission set in your instance. See Reference: Available Permissions.
- Security:
- Admin Access >Userspermission.
- Model Management Access > Organization Structurepermission.
- Admin Access > Permission Setspermission.
When you create a user, you're filling one of the available seats that your company purchased with your license agreement. When you delete a user, the seat becomes available again for future new users.
You must assign every user a permission set. Without a permission set, the user can't sign in. The permissions define the type of seat the users have and also what they can do in the instance. Example: Can they access sheets, or modeling, or both?
Associate each user with a valid email address so that they can:
- Reset their passwords using theForgot your passwordlink on the sign-in page.
- Submit support requests and receive responses.
- Email reports within Adaptive Planning.
Any user can update their own profile and change their password. See Change Your Adaptive Planning Profile, Home Page, and Email Groups.
If you use access rules, you must assign the user an access rule, or add the user to a group that already has access rules defined for it. Otherwise, the user can't access any data in Adaptive Planning. See Concept: Access Rules.
If you synchronize users from Workday, you must manage users within Workday. In Adaptive Planning, you can only edit permission sets and owned levels for synchronized users. All other user details become read-only. If an admin begins editing a user profile before user synchronization begins and doesn't log out, that user profile remains editable until the admin logs out. See Steps: Set Up SAML SSO into Adaptive Planning for Synced Users .
If you have set up Unified Access Management (UAM), then you can manage permissions assignment from Workday. With UAM, we disable the capability to assign permissions to users in Adaptive Planning. Also, with UAM, the permissionSets APIs become irrelevant. See Steps: Set Up Unified Access Management (UAM) and Concept: Unified Access Management (UAM).
