Using the Access Control Command Line
As of Release 2018 R3 SP1, you can perform Access Control group management tasks from the command line, using a .csv spreadsheet approach similar to the aPriori BOM Loader and Bulk Costing functionality.
This feature supports the following actions:
ADD – Create one or more new groups, specifying the parent group path, group type, user defined attributes, and/or associated permissions.
REMOVE – Delete one or more existing groups.
MODIFY – Update one or more groups, specifying a new name, changed attributes, and/or changed associated permissions.
The command to run this functionality is:
<apriori_install>\bin\groupLoad.cmd
Once the command completes, group membership is recalculated to reflect the changes.
