Overview

In the IUIE, when you display the Collections Catalog in Manage mode, you can modify how it is organized. To browse the Collections Catalog to see how reports are assigned, or to perform any of the following tasks, ignore the search filter functionality and click the folders in the list to expand contents and options.

Create a user group

1. In the IUIE, click the Manage Access tab, and then click Collections.
2. On the lower left side of the report object index, click the Manage tab.
3. In the report object index, navigate to the folder in which you want to create a new user group. Click its icon to expand the options.
4. Click Create User Group. The Add User Group page will display.
5. Select the appropriate "Group Type".
6. In the "User Group Name" field, enter the technical name for the user group.
   Note:

   Name the new user group following the standard naming convention of system (SIS, etc.), module (SR, FA, SF, etc.), and descriptive modifier (any text you choose), for example:

    SIS_SR_RSTRCT

   To submit questions about creating a technical name for a user group, fill out the EDSD Support Form .

7. In the "Label Name" field, enter a label for the user group. This is the name that will appear in the Collections Catalog, and can be in any format.
8. From the Group Campus drop-down list, select the appropriate campus.
9. From the Subject Area drop-down list, select the appropriate subject area.
10. In the "DM Approval" field, change the F to a T.
    Note:

    The F stands for "False", which must be changed to T for "True" for the change to take place in the system. Publishers who are not Data Managers can make a request to create a user group, but once a request is made, the Data Manager who owns the Collection will have to change the F to T.
