Managing Administrators → Administrative Privileges → Managing Logon as Another User
Use the Logon As Another User tab to manage the user selections that appear in the Login As Another User drop-down list in Work Center. This enables you to restrict the ability to log in as another user.
Select the Logon as Any Valid User check box to allow a user to log in as any user. Clear the check box to enable the Manage User Selections and Manage Group Selections options on the page. Use either of these options to select the users that can be impersonated.
The ability to restrict Logon as Another User is determined accordingly:
If you are a Managed Administrator, there are two requirements:
If you are a Regular User with Remote Administration privilege:
Product access and privileges affect the ability to log in to Application Administrator and use administrative features as another user.
For example, if Carmen is a regular user with Remote Administration privilege, she can log in to Application Administrator as another user and make administrative changes as that user. However, if Carmen is a regular user, but does not have Remote Administration privilege, she cannot log in to Application Administrator and she can only access the Out of Office and Manage Data settings while impersonating another user.
Review the following scenarios for further detail:
The Impersonating User Is | And the Impersonated User | Result |
---|---|---|
any user | does not have Remote Administration privilege | The impersonated user cannot log in to Application Administrator and can only access Out of Office and Manage Data settings. |
a regular user with Remote Administration privilege | has Remote Administration privilege | The impersonated user has full access to Application Administrator. |
a regular user without Remote Administration privilege | has Remote Administration privilege | The impersonated user cannot log in to Application Administrator and can only access Out of Office and Manage Data settings. |
a managed administrator with Remote Administration privilege, but without Global Administration privilege | has Remote Administration privilege | The impersonated user cannot log in to Application Administrator and can only access Out of Office and Manage Data settings. |
a managed administrator with Global Administration privilege, but without Remote Administration privilege | has Remote Administration privilege | The impersonated user cannot log in to Application Administrator and can only access Out of Office and Manage Data settings. |
a managed administrator with Remote Administration and Global Administration privileges | has Remote Administration privilege | The impersonated user has full access to Application Administrator. |
