Add a Position

A Security Administrator can add a position to configure the business processes, roles, and org units that a user assigned to that position can access.

NOTE: A user must belong to the Users Manager WebApp Group in dspConduct™ to configure security for dspConduct™ users.

Position security is used to establish security for users in the Content WebApp.

NOTE: When positions are changed in dspConduct™, the changes automatically result in changes to what business processes, roles, and data the users can access in the Content WebApp.

Before performing this task, design the governance elements in dspConduct™ > Design. Refer to dspConduct™ Design Process Overview for more information.
