The ‘Administration – Authorization‘ right gives the user the Menu Navigation in both Classic PPM and Clarity (Modern UX)

• Clarity PPM SaaS

Issue/Introduction

We have super users who manage resources only in Classic.  When we grant the 'Administration - Authorization' right to the user they are allowed to manage resources and groups. 

When the user logs in, they also see 'Integrations' in Classic and in Modern UX, they see the Administration menu link and get access to the System Options tile where they have access to make changes to the Modern system settings. 

The application states the definition as "Allows user to manage resources and groups. Includes the Administration - Navigate right.'
It does not say anything about integrations. This does not allow us anyway to keep admin level rights the same in Classic vs Modern for our super users who manage resources only- especially as more admin level features expand into Modern.

 

Expected Results: The description should show 'Allows user to manage resources, groups and integrations. Includes the Administration - Access right.'

Environment

Release 16.0.x 

Cause

DE66038

This is a documentation issue for the description of the access right because it does not match the actual functionality.

The 'Administration - Authorization' access right has an incorrect description.

The name 'Administration - Navigate' does not exist.

It should refer to the 'Administration - Access' right.

This right also leaves out the mention that it gives access to Integrations authorization. 

Resolution

Resolved in 16.1.0

The Description on the access right has been updated to reflect the current functionality. 

• 'Allows user to manage resources, groups and integrations. Includes the Administration - Access right.'  

Additional Information

The 'Administration - Access' right provides the following:

• Classic
  • Administration menu link 
• Modern UX
  • Navigation to Administration menu icon 
  • System Settings Tile - ability to update the data in the tabs on this tile
