Update Access Rights

Through your processes of database migration, all the access rights that applied in your earlier compliance product are carried forward into FlexNet Manager Suite 2024 R2.

In addition, if you created a new account for installation (suggested: fnms-admin), this account defaults to having administrator privileges in your new implementation, in addition to the migrated access rights. This account has adequate rights to modify access rights for other operators.

To modify access rights:

1. Log in to the web interface to FlexNet Manager Suite 2024 R2.
2. Navigate to the system menu ( in the top right corner), choose Accounts, and select the Roles tab.
3. For each unique set of access rights that you need to assign to operators, ensure that there is (or create) a distinct role, and set its rights by expanding the various headings in the accordion and using the controls inside. (For advanced combinations, start by selecting Custom from the drop-down list in each section.) Remember to scroll down and click Save (or Create) when you make any changes.
   For more information, click the help button at the top left.
4. When appropriate roles are defined, switch to the All Accounts tab.
5. Find each account in the list in turn, and click the hyperlinked account name to open its properties.
6. Change the roles assigned, or add additional roles, to each account as required.
   The net effect of all roles on permissions for this account is displayed in read-only mode in the accordion below as you make changes. (Remember that a 'deny' in one role over-rides an 'allow' in another role when the same account is assigned to both roles.)
7. Remember to Save each changed account.
