Logins and roles in IBM® SPSS® Modeler Advantage Marketing Edition

Marketing Platform defines two user roles for integration: SPSSadmin and SPSSuser. IBM® Campaign users who are assigned one of these roles in IBM® Campaign have the corresponding permissions in IBM® SPSS® Modeler Advantage Marketing Edition. These permissions cannot be changed in IBM® Campaign.

You can assign either or both of these roles to an IBM® Campaign user. The roles specify the operations that users can perform in the integration. Users with the SPSSadmin role can perform all administrative operations in IBM® SPSS® Modeler Advantage Marketing Edition. Users with the SPSSUser role can open IBM® SPSS® Modeler Advantage Marketing Edition to build and score models. You assign these roles to users on the Users page for the partition.

You can modify permissions for single sign-on users in IBM® SPSS® Modeler Advantage Marketing Edition by using IBM® SPSS® Collaboration and Deployment Services.

How you manage roles and permissions for single sign-on users depends on whether the users have accounts in IBM® SPSS® Modeler Advantage Marketing Edition before single sign-on is configured. Typically, users will not have existing logins for IBM® SPSS® Modeler Advantage Marketing Edition.

The following table describes the different login situations for users in the integrated environment.
