Assume User ID allows support users to assume the identity of another user provided they have appropriate security settings. This is intended for support users to log in as another user to check what that user is experiencing.
If the user whose ID is being assumed is currently logged in, they will be logged out.
SYSAdmin user and root group are both banned from being assumed. SYSAdmin user can assume any other user.
Location : System > User Maintenance > Assume User ID
The Assume User ID browse shows all users whose prime group is listed in the SY/SURGROUPS parameter, and who are not Root users. (If you are logged in as SYSAdmin, it shows all users.)
