Standard roles
SDL Trados GroupShare is built with default users/role with predefined permissions for managing the most common actions.
SA (System Administrator)
SDL Trados GroupShare is built with the default System Administrator user which is available in the Users view, from the root organization.
The System Administrator:
- Is member of the Administrator role in MultiTerm Administrator and in all SDL Trados GroupShare organizations and resource libraries.
- Has unrestricted rights and can perform any activity in SDL Trados GroupShare and in MultiTerm Server.
- Is automatically a member of the Expert User role in every MultiTerm termbase.
- Has default access to the System Configuration view to check licensing information and manage server and databases.
MultiTerm roles
- MultiTerm Super user/role
- MultiTerm Guest user/role
MultiTerm Super user/role
The first user of MultiTerm Administrator assumes the identity of the Super user/role.
The Super user/role:
- Has unrestricted rights and can perform any activity in the MultiTerm system.
- Is an administrator and is automatically a member of the Expert User role in every MultiTerm termbase.
- Can add other users to the Administrator role.
- Cannot be deleted.
Login rules for the MultiTerm Super
- MultiTerm server does not allow the MultiTerm Super to log in more than once at the same time.
- Provided no super user is already logged in, super can always log in, even if the maximum number of concurrent connections to the server has been reached.
- Edit the user account for MultiTerm Super as soon as possible, and change the password from its default value, super, to a more secure one.
- Do not use the MultiTerm Super account routinely for administrative tasks. Give administrator rights to one or more other user accounts, and reserve the MultiTerm Super account for special circumstances.
MultiTerm Guest user/role
The MultiTerm Guest user is a member of the predefined Public role in every termbase on MultiTerm Server.
Because membership of the Public role grants read-only access to termbase entries, the MultiTerm Guest user account might be suitable for termbase visitors.
The MultiTerm Guest user cannot log in to SDL MultiTerm Administrator as an administrator.
You can customize the MultiTerm Super and MultiTerm Guest user accounts and create new users/role in order to better organize your translation team.
