Set Alias

The Set Alias dialog appears when you select the Set Role Alias, Set Group Alias or Set User Alias link on the Logi JReport Administration > Security > Alias page. It helps you to set an alias resource tree for the specified role, group, or user.

The dialog is divided into two phases, one for selecting the role/group/user and the other for defining the alias tree.
