To access the TDM service, other application services, and objects in the Informatica domain, and to use the application clients, you must have a user account. The tasks that you can perform depend on the type of user account you have and the type of license.

You can set up different types of user accounts in the Informatica domain. Users can perform tasks based on the roles, privileges, and permissions assigned to them.

You can create, edit, and delete groups, and add users to the groups. You can assign roles and privileges to a group. The roles and privileges assigned to the group determine the tasks that users in the group can perform within the Informatica domain.

You create users and groups and assign roles and privileges from Informatica Administrator.

In this lesson, you perform the following tasks:

Log in to Informatica Administrator.
Create a user.
Create a group.
