# Configuring Program Management Users

To assign access grants to a user, you add the user to a security group.

Note: To create a user, you must have the User Administration system-level license. For information on system-level licenses, see the Security Model Guide and Reference.

To assign a new user to one or more security groups:

1. Log on to PPM.

2. On the menu bar, select Open > Administration > Open Workbench.

   The PPM Workbench opens.

3. On the shortcut bar, select Sys Admin > Users.

   The User Workbench opens.

4. Click New User.

   The User: Untitled window opens to the User Information tab.

5. Enter the required information (fields with labels displayed in red text) for the new user, and then click the Security Groups tab.

6. In the Directly Linked Security Groups box, click New.

   The Security Groups dialog box opens.

7. In the Security Groups field, click the auto-complete button, and then select the security groups.

8. Click OK.

9. To save your changes, click OK.
