Administrative console user interface

The administrative console user interface provides an advanced set of administrative tasks, and has new multitasking capabilities.

Persona-based console customization
The administrative console user interface contains the entire set of administrative tasks, such as managing roles, policies, and reports. This persona-based console provides sets of tasks, each tailored for the needs of the default administrative user types:
  • System administrator
  • Privileged administrator
  • Service owner
  • Help desk assistant
  • Auditor
  • Manager

System administrators can customize which tasks the different types of users can do. To control user access to accounts and tasks, for example, use a default set of user groups, access control items, and views. We can also customize user access by defining additional user groups, views, and access control items.

Multitasking control

Wizards within the administrative console user interface expedite the administrative tasks of adding users, requesting accounts, and creating new services. The administrator can concurrently manage several tasks.

Advanced search capability

The administrative console user interface also provides a powerful advanced search feature.
