Authorizing a user or group using iSeries Navigator

 

Some users might need specific authority to an object. You can grant specific authority to a user or group using iSeries™ Navigator.

To authorize a user or group to an object, follow these steps:

1. From iSeries Navigator, expand the system you want to use.

2. Navigate until the object for which you want to edit permissions is visible.

3. Right-click the object for which you want to add permissions and click Permissions.

4. On the Permissions window, click Add.

5. On the Add window, select one or more users and groups or enter the name of a user or group in the user or group name field.

6. Click OK. This adds the users or groups to the top of the list.

The user or group is given the default authority to the object. You can change a user's authority to one of the types defined by the system or you can customize the authority.

You can also remove and customize authority using iSeries Navigator.
