• Key Concepts: 
  Delegated administration is a feature of the SAP Enterprise Portal (EP) PIN Portal Infrastructure component that allows an administrator to assign certain tasks to other users. This allows the administrator to delegate certain tasks to users who have the necessary skills and knowledge to complete them. This feature also allows for more efficient use of resources, as it eliminates the need for the administrator to be involved in every task. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use delegated administration, an administrator must first create a user group and assign users to it. The administrator can then assign tasks to the user group, such as creating and managing users, assigning roles, and managing access rights. The user group can then be used to assign tasks to individual users or groups of users. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using delegated administration, it is important to ensure that the user group has the necessary skills and knowledge to complete the tasks assigned to them. It is also important to ensure that the user group has access to all of the necessary resources, such as databases and applications.
