I am trying to help someone who is getting a "not authorized" message. How can I check to see if this person has access to KFS?

There are two ways to see what roles a person has in the system. If you are a KFS User, go to the Administration tab, then in the System panel. Under the Identity header, you will see "Person, Group, Role..." From there, choose one of these methods:
 

1. Click on Role. In the fifth selection box down (Principal Name), enter the person's NetID, and then click Search. In the the third column of the results, Role Name shows which access, if any, the person has. If no results are found, the person has not been set up with access. More information about the different roles and how to request access is available on the Get Access page.
2. Click on Person. In the first selection box (Principal Name), enter the person's NetID, and then click Search. In the first column of the results, click on the Principal ID. In the window that appears, click Show on the Membership tab. Either Hide or scroll past the Groups to the Roles section to see what role names the person has.
