You are right in that there is no single permission to do this. In most 
companies the request we to provide specific permission to different indivuals 
to allow segmentation of duties. The OOTB appadmin login has all of these 
permissions it does not have the ARS administration permission which limits the 
forms the login can see and appadmin cannot log into RDS. You can use the Demo 
login to give appadmin these permissions.

Subject: Re: ITSM 7.6.4.1 Permissions


Thank you all for your answers.  Some very detailed.  There is some confusion. 
I 
ave read the manuals.  I tend to read them before I ask questions.  I'm weird 
hat way!
In the older versions of the ITSM/Help Desk 6.0 and previous packages there was 
 PERMISSION group called "APP-Administrator"  this permission level was able to 
o anything in the ITSM package. For the most part it was the equivalent of the 
XXX-Config" permission group now.  
What I was looking for and it appears to not be available is a master 
permission 
evel such as "App-Administrator"  See the excerpt from page 59 in the old ITSM 
onfig Manual.
"The application administrator is typically the person responsible for
onfiguring the Remedy ITSM applications. Before any of the other general
onfiguration tasks can be performed, the application administrator needs to
e added to the APP-Administrator permission group (in the Remedy User
orm)." 
This is the permission set I was looking for.  It looks like that is not a 
ermission level available in ITSM 7.6.4.x
Thank You!

appadmin user is still available in 7.6.4.1 and considered as application 
dministrator. You may need to grant this user appropriate permission in its 
eople record as per your requirement.
emo is the user who is 'Administrator' user created default when you install AR 
erver. It is server admin user and not related with ITSM applications. That is 
he reason you will not find any people record for Demo in CTM:People form.
There are 2 different aspects if you want to allow any user to do "anything" on 
he AR system/ITSM suite. First is if its solely the development of applications 
nd access to server objects/configurations then Administrator(Sub administrator 
s well except few scenarios where it cannot change/modify server settings. See 
R guide for that detail) permission would be ok (Beware that Administrator is 
he top most level of permission which can change any other applications 
ermissions, assignments, configurations etc).
econd aspect is that if user need not to work on development/changes of 
erver/workflow objects , server configurations and rather would be working 
olely on using applications then application permissions would be sufficient 
eeping in mind the type of application user use.
aving'Administrator' permission doesn't mean that user would be able to work on 
TSM applications and do various tasks such as create/assign incidents/changes 
tc . He/she would need appropriate application permission to perform those 
asks.
very application permission has its details what can be achieved by granting 
hat permission, you can go through BMC manuals of each ITSM application for 
ore details about each permission.Normally xxxx-Config permissions are granted 
o those user who you would want to perform configurations changes in ITSM. For 
nd users you would like to just grant normal user permissions.
here are some tasks which can be performed by one permission whereas another 
ermission can perform all those same tasks as well as some extra tasks, so you 
ight want to grant the permission which can grant more access (Instead of 
ranting both). BMC manuals can provide you all such details.

When you are creating Admin users, formerly "App-Admin" and "Administrator" 
ombo, what permissions do you have to give the user in order to be able to do 
nything they need in the entire AR system/ITSM suite. 
We will only have 4 people that need this access, but I want to make sure they 
ave everything they need to be able to work.  Once I know what the required 
ermissions are I can just make one template.  Does the one with the * trump the 
nes below it?
I have identified the following:
