Users and groups

The Dynamic Workload Console uses the Dashboard Application Services Hub capabilities for defining users and to authorize them to view and use items on the navigation menu. Users are granted access to resources based on the role to which they have been assigned. The groups in which users are defined or the role assigned to users determines the operations they can perform and which resources are visible to them. This means that depending on your user role designation, you might not see all of the items described in this help system. The groups or predefined roles available are:

TWSWEBUIAdministrator

Users in this group can see the entire portfolio and use all features of the Dynamic Workload Console.

Users in this group can also access and use all features of the Self-Service Catalog and theSelf-Service Dashboards mobile applications. From the Self-Service Catalog mobile application, these users can create and edit catalogs, create and edit services, add services to catalogs, submit services associated to job streams, and share catalogs and services with other users. From the Self-Service Dashboards mobile application, these users can create and edit dashboards to filter for jobs and workstations, display a dashboard of results, perform recovery actions on a single result.

Users in this group can also access the Self-Service Catalog and theSelf-Service Dashboards mobile applications but the actions they can perform are limited to submitting service requests (job streams) from the Self-Service Catalog and , from the Self-Service Dashboards mobile application, displaying a dashboard of results and performing recovery actions on them.

TWSWEBUIBusinessDeveloper

Users in this group can access and use the Self-Service Catalog and the Self-Service Dashboards mobile applications. From the Self-Service Catalog mobile application, these users can create and edit catalogs, create and edit services, add services to catalogs, delete services and catalogs, and submit services associated to job streams. From the Self-Service Dashboards mobile application, these users can create and edit dashboards to filter for jobs and workstations, display and view a dashboard of results, delete dashboards, and perform recovery actions on a single result. To share catalogs, services, and dashboards with other users, the TWSWEBUIBusinessDeveloper can assign them to the custom roles that the TWSWEBUIBusinessDeveloper possesses but not to predefined roles. Users with these same custom roles can work with the catalogs, services, and dashboards. Users with all of the custom roles can submit services; view, edit, and delete services, catalogs, and dashboards; but users with only one or some of the custom roles can only submit services, and view services, catalogs, and dashboards.

If a user with the Administrator role, creates catalogs, services, and dashboards and does not assign any roles to them, then users with the TWSWEBUIBusinessDeveloper role cannot see or work with them.

Warning: If a custom role is removed from a catalog, service, or dashboards, in addition to the TWSWEBUIBusinessDeveloper user, users with this same custom role can no longer see and work with them, even if they possess other custom roles that are currently assigned to the catalog or service. The Administrator must reassign the custom role to the catalog, service, or dashboard to make it accessible again to the TWSWEBUIBusinessDeveloper user and other users with the same custom role.

The following table lists some entries of the navigation toolbar, and some activities you can perform from the Dynamic Workload Console. Beside each item, the table shows the groups whose users are authorized to access them.
