Create an Access Type

The access types define all aspects of security. Several predefined access types are included, and you can modify them or can define new ones. Each access type for a user controls the following aspects of system behavior:

• How CA SDM performs the web authentication when the user logs in.
• The access level for the user.
• Whether the user can modify web forms or the database schema using Web Screen Painter.
• What are the roles available to the user.

Follow these steps:

1. Select Security and Role Management, Access Types on the Administration tab.

   The Access Type List page opens.

   Default: 15

2. Click Create New and complete the access type fields, as appropriate, on the Create New Access Type page.
3. Use the tabs to complete the following tasks:
   • Configure Web Authentication for an Access Type
   • Assign Web Screen Painter Permissions to an Access Type
   • Assign Roles to an Access Type
4. Click Save.

   The access type is created.
