Maintain Organization Unit Administrators

An Organization Unit Administrator administers specific organization units through organization unit-specific roles. These roles have specific permissions that limit the ability of users with those roles to only manage the organization units they administer. System Administrators are able to assign organization unit-specific administrators to sections of the hierarchy. These administrators are able to make assignments and manage employees, but they are limited to the organization units they control.

Managing Organization Unit Administrators

System Administrators manage organization unit administration roles like any other security role. To see more detailed steps on managing roles, see the topics below.

Assigning Organization Unit Administrators

System administrators assign users with organization units-specific permissions to organizations units. Once organization unit administrators are assigned to a unit, they can perform functions for that unit and other units in its hierarchy. Organization unit management includes assigning roles, making assignments, and creating users. For the steps to assign organization unit administrators to organization units, see the Create Organization Units topic.
