Administrators who have the appropriate privileges can use the AP:Administration form to create process administrators with the following types of authorities:

• Full Admin authority — Grants the ability to configure and modify processes, as well as to approve or reject requests regardless of the normal process.
• Override Only Admin authority — Grants the ability to approve or reject requests regardless of the normal process, but not create or modify processes.

Process administrator prerequisites

The first process administrator must be created with Full Admin authority by an AR System administrator. Subsequent process administrators can be created by any process administrator with the Full Admin authority. To designate a user as a process administrator, the user must exist in BMC Remedy AR System, and must be a member of the AR System Approval Admin group. If the user ID for a process administrator does not exist, an AR System administrator must create it and assign the user to the Approval Admin group. See the Adding-and-modifying-user-information.

This section describes how to assign process administrator authority to an existing AR System user who is a member of the Approval Admin group.
