Assigning applications to groups

For users to access the applications you create, you must assign user and group access. You can also modify a group’s permissions to an existing application.

You control who has access to the Novera EPIC Management System by assigning the Management Applet to the users and groups you wish to have access. Users and groups who do not have the Management Applet assigned to them cannot access the Novera EPIC Management System.
