Using the su Mode
The su mode (Switch User Mode) allows you to execute functions of the INUBIT software with the rights of other users instead your own. Using the su mode you can acquire the rights of any user belonging to your or a subordinated group without knowing the applicable password.
Special status for user "root"
The user root with the role system administrator in the group admin is the only user who can acquire the rights of all INUBIT Workbench users.
No user can acquire the rights of the user root.
