ADAM has several profiles (roles):
- ADAM_ADMAdministrator
- ADAM_Application_Administrator
- ADAM_Authorization_Grantor
- ADAM_Helpdesk
- ADAM_User
With the exception of the ADAM_Helpdesk profile, none of the ADAM
profiles are granted directly. They happen as the result of an action taken
in ADAM. Application Administrators
Application Administrators of Ministry applications are identified by the
Data Custodian of the business area that owns the application. The ADAM
Administrator sets up the Application Administrators as directed by the Data
Custodian. Authorization Grantors
One becomes an Authorization Grantor when an Application Administrator
delegates granting capability. The Application Administrator does this using
ADAM. The person receiving a delegation, i.e. one who has been delegated the
ability to grant access, will receive an email notification. End Users
Authorization Grantors use ADAM to provide application access to users. AGs
can only grant access to profiles they have been delegated by the
Application Administrator. Users will likely not use the ADAM application,
although they can use it to determine what application profiles they’ve been
granted. Help Desk
The Helpdesk profile is granted by the ADAM Application Administrator. The
profile provides view access to all delegations and authorizations, and is
used for trouble-shooting access problems. |
