The User Manager is a powerful IBM ELM widget that simplifies user access management across IBM ELM, including DOORS Next, ETM, EWM, and GCM. It streamlines role and permission control, enhancing efficiency, security, and workflows.
Managing user roles and permissions in IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management (ELM) systems like DOORS Next, ETM, EWM, and GCM often presents challenges. The default system framework allows organizations to identify user roles within individual project areas, but lacks functionality for analyzing and managing a single user's access across multiple projects. This limitation creates inefficiencies, especially when organizations need to quickly assign roles, audit access for compliance, or remove users across multiple projects, hindering security and increasing administrative overhead.
