Adding Additional Application Managers

It is not unusual for more than one user to be made the Application Manager for the site.  To add additional users as Application Managers, perform the following steps:

1.  While on any page within the CorasWorks Application Designer v4 site, click on the User Menu drop-down in the top right corner of the page (SharePoint 2010) or on the gear/sprocket icon (SharePoint 2013).

Table 1: Choosing Application Managers

2.  In the resulting menu choose “Application Managers”.

3.  An “Application Managers” window will open and provide a description of how to add new Application Managers.

4.  The current Application Managers are displayed in a listing at the bottom of the page.  Right mouse click on "Application Configuration", hover over "Custom Actions", then choose "Edit Managers".

5.  An Actions Form will open.  In the “Application Managers” field choose the user(s) who should have access to the Design Canvas page for editing the Navigation and Widgets.  More than one person can be selected and the Application Managers can be changed later.

6.  Once at least one user is selected, click on the OK button.

7.  When returned to the Application Managers window, the selected Manager(s) will be displayed.

8.  Click on the X in the top right corner to close out of the Application Managers window.

This process adds the Application Manager for the site.  After this, the Application Managers can be added and removed via the User Menu drop-down.
