    Abstract

    User types control which users can access applications, as well as what functionality is available to the user within each application.

    In the Talent Suite, you enter user types using the Talent Suite Administration (the Admin application).

    There are user-type fields you must enter for Onboard as well as for Talent Suite Administration (the Admin application), which is needed for user management and other administrative tasks.

    Note: You can enter more than one user type in some fields. Sometimes this is needed in order for a user to have access to all needed functionality.

    • In fields that contain a text box, use a pipe character ( | ) along with an asterisk ( * ) to enter more than one entry. For example, enter user-type|*|user type.

    • In fields that use a drop-down, use the Ctrl key to select multiple entries.

    The following illustration shows the Onboard screen in the Admin application. It is followed by a table that lists the user types you can enter:
