Adding a Delegated Administrator

You use the Users module to add a user designated as the delegated administrator to log on to a SupplierAD site. Delegated administrators are administrator-level users and have extended access for their organization (for example, reviewing orders, and creating user profiles) in a site that supports delegated administrators.

You must have access to the Profiles modules to make changes to site terms, profile definitions, and profiles. For information about Business Desk permissions, see About Business Desk Security.

Note

• Your New Profile screen might not contain the same properties that are shown in this procedure. If you have changed the properties in the User Object profile definition, those changes appear in the New Profile screen. For information about changing the properties of a profile definition, see Managing Profile Definitions.
