User vs. Group Profiles
To take advantage of any of the Kofax Capture user management features, you must first enable the User Profiles feature. You can turn this feature on and off as required. If you disable the User Profiles feature, and later enable it again, all your previous settings are restored and enforced. In Kofax Capture, users or groups can be given profiles that regulate access to the modules and batch classes. The profile also defines access to various administrative utilities.
A user profile is a collection of permission and assignment settings that are assigned to an individual Kofax Capture user. A group profile is a collection of permission and assignment settings that are assigned to a group. A group may consist of any number of Kofax Capture users, and users can be members of any number of groups.
Groups can be assigned the same types of access rights as users, and all members inherit the group’s rights. Because these rights are inherited, you can quickly change the settings for all the members in a group simply by editing the group profile. For large groups, this simplifies the maintenance of user rights and ensures consistency.
You can also link Kofax Capture to your operating system users and groups.
