User administration
The user administration features enable you to:
set up and maintain customer accounts for UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server Admin users
set up and maintain user groups (known as roles in UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server Admin)
specify access rights to projects, case data, and activity features for different customer accounts, users, and roles.
All information about projects, activity features, and access rights is stored as properties in the Distributed Property Management system (DPM).
