Transferring the System Owner Role

One user must always be assigned to the system owner role. The system owner can transfer the role to another user.

Prerequisites

You must be logged on as a user with the System Information Update privilege. By default, the System Information Update privilege is enabled for the following roles: Admin, BI Admin, System Owner, and BI System Owner.
Note

Transferring the system owner role is not possible if you only have one license for SAP Analytics Cloud.

Procedure

  1. On the Users page of the Security area, select the user you want to assign the system owner role to.
  2. Select (Assign as System Owner).

    The Transfer System Owner Role dialog appears.

  3. Under New Role, enter a new role for the previous system owner, or select to open a list of available roles.
    Note

    One or more roles may be selected.

  4. Select OK.

Results

The user you selected is assigned to the system owner role, and the previous owner is assigned to the role you selected.
