About Profiles and Profile Management

An Administrator will use Profiles to control whether groups of users can perform balanceAAP functions. Some Profiles will come standard with your installation; often, they will meet the needs of your organization. However, existing Profiles can be edited, or custom Profiles may be created. Once Profiles are saved here, they can be assigned to users, via: User Management.

Access the balanceAAP tab,tab and the Plan Profiles sub-tab.

A Profile drop-down in the tab header will be preloaded with available options. Review the displayed Profile, or select a different one from the Profile drop-down. sing the Profile Options menu, the displayed Profile can be set as the default by checking the box. The default is applied when a new user is added.

Note: Only one Profile can be the default.

For the displayed Profile, a table shows the available software features by Program Module and Function. The Access Level that is currently in place for the feature is shown in the right-hand column.
