    You need to use Roles Based Adminstration

    1. Log in as the EVAdmin user and open the VAC

    3. Click "Authorization Manager
    4. Browse to  "Enterprise Vault -> Role Assignments -> Power Administrator"
    5. Right click in the right window and go to "Assign Windows Users and Groups...."

    7. Go to File -> Exit
    8. You will be returned to the VAC, press Yes on the "Do you want to save the Authorization Store to the Directory Database?"
    9  You will then be told you need to restart the VAC
    10. Close the VAC and save the changes, log out and back in as your regular user and try again


    After this, read the Administrators Guide on how to use RBA and understand the implications of the different users such as Power Admins etc
