Enabling or Disabling System Administrator Privileges
In order for a user to have SysAdmin privileges, they must have their role set to System Administrator.
If a user does not already have SysAdmin privileges, you can always add them into that role by following these steps:
1. Access the profile of the user who you want to associate a SysAdmin role to.
2. Click on the Options button on the top left row of buttons; this will enable a drop down menu.
3. Under the subheading Properties, click Roles and Access.
4. On the right of the first line will be a toggle on/off function labelled Global Administrator.
By toggling on this option, you are providing this user with Global User Administrator privileges.
By toggling off this option, you are removing them from the Global User Administrator role.
5. Click Save to ensure that the role has been added or removed.
