RIM Basics Users

Vault Admins are responsible for creating and managing users in Veeva Basics. You can perform all of the user administration functionality from the RIM Admin > Users tab.

User Types

Vault users are categorized into three (3) different user types:

  • Domain Users: Users from your company’s domain, such as your peer employees. This is the most common type for new users.
  • Cross-Domain Users: Users from external organizations, such as vendors or consultants, who can use their existing Veeva Vault credentials to access your company’s vault.
  • VeevaID Users: Users that are not employees of your company and do not have their own Vault User ID. Vault Admins can register a VeevaID user to their Vault and then send the user an automated email prompting them to finish the registration process.

Security Profiles & Application Licenses

You can provide users access to Vault based on their role at your organization using security profiles and licenses.

Security profiles define what each user can do in the system based on their role. Application licenses work in conjunction with security profiles to provide users access to the tools and information relevant to their role.

The table below details the security profiles and the possible application licenses for each security profile. See the security profiles and application licenses sections for more details.
