Tips   Edit groups

You can edit one group at a time. To view all users, groups, roles, and permissions assigned to a group, either directly or indirectly, click the group name on the Groups screen.

When you click Save, your changes are saved to the database. Objects (such as users, roles, and PCards) with the Adapter Source set to ManuallyMaintained are maintained within your Ariba Spend Management application and not updated by integration events. Objects with the Adapter Source not set to ManuallyMaintained can be overwritten or deleted by integration events. For more information, see About the adapter source.

If you click Save and an out-of-date error is displayed, the object you are editing was deleted or edited by another user. For more information, see About out-of-date objects.

Screen details

To display the Groups - Edit Group screen, select a group on the Groups screen and then click Edit.

 

Depending on the permissions assigned to you, and whether you are in view or edit mode, you may only view details, or you may both view and edit details.

  1. Modify general information. You cannot change the adapter source or the unique name.
  2. Assign shared users, subgroups, roles, or permissions to the group you are editing, or remove them from the group. Click Add/Remove to display available choices.
  3. If available, click the Table Options icon, located in the row above the column headers, to display commands that control the display of data in the table. For example, you can hide or show columns of data; group data; or export data to Excel.
  4. Click Save to save your changes, or Cancel to return to the previous screen without saving your changes.
    • A log message is created in the database audit log when a group is edited.
