Assigning a Certification to Users

1. In the Certifications workspace tab, select the certification to be assigned.

2. Do one of the following:

   • In the Users tab, right-click and click Add Link.

   • On the Current View ribbon group, click Add Link.

   The Select User dialog appears. The MES users who have not already been assigned to the certification are listed.

   If using OS Group security mode, you can add other users to this list by clicking the Add button. This function is similar to the functionality for adding users as described in Setting Up User Groups and Users in OS Group Security Mode. The selected user will be added to the MES database. However, there is no verification that the user belongs to a valid MES OS Group. If the selected user is not a member of an OS Group defined in the MES database, the user will not be able to log into any MES application.

3. Select the users to which to assign the certification.

4. Click OK.

   The selected users are listed in the Users tab.

5. For each user entry, complete the property settings.

   This property is blank for permanent certifications.

6. Save your changes.
