- How to manage users

- Managing users in SQL Inventory Manager
- Managing users and their subscriptions
- User role permissions
There are three roles available:
...
The Administrator role has privileges to access all instances. If you assign the User or Guest role to a user account , Idera IDERA allows you to select any tags or instances to which whether you want this user account to have access. Select a tag, and to allow the user has to access to view all instances under that tag along with any instances selected separately.
There are two radio buttons. One for ‘All Instances’, the other for ‘Specific Instances’. When ‘All Instances’ is selected the grids are not visible. When ‘Specific Instances’ is selected, the ‘ Per Instance Tag’ and ‘ Per Instance’ controls available, with checkboxes to unlock the lists themselves. If someone is being added/edited and they have no permissions at all granted, there should be a warning displayed “Warning: With this configuration, this user will not be able to view any instances.”
Each tag shown in the Tags grid should be a link. When the user clicks on a tag, a popup window should be displayed which shows all the instances under that tag. This window should be similar to the popup window displayed when ‘Browse’ is clicked in the Add Instance Wizard’s first step. See section 5.1.5 for a screenshot.
SQL Server instances or a select few. Choose the Select Specific Instance option, and SQL Inventory Manager displays the Per Instance Tag and Per Instance lists, as shown in the following image. Select a tag, and the user has access to view all instances under that tag. Note that you can select a combination of tags and individual instances. Click the tag name to view a list of all instances under that tag.
