Managing Permissions in Performance Scorecard
User provisioning through Shared Services requires configuration on both the Shared Services
server and Performance Scorecard application. You can provision users and groups individually,
or migrate existing users on Performance Scorecard to perform user provisioning on multiple
users.
When you configure the application in the Configuration Utility after installing Performance
Scorecard, you must use the Shared Services server, which automatically points to the Shared
Services
CSS.xml file for external authentication. This step enables Performance Scorecard and
the Shared Services server to communicate seamlessly when provisioning users.
Note:
The Shared Services Administrator must also be provisioned to the Performance Scorecard
application.
You can access Shared Services through Performance Scorecard or directly, using the appropriate
URL. The URL to User Management Console is in the following format:
http://< server name >:< port number >/interop
