It's easier than you think, but not at all obvious what to do.  Start up
"User Manager", and select "Policies/User Rights" from the menubar.  There
you get to assign specific rights to groups of users (eg, "Administrators",
"Power Users", "Everyone", etc).  There is a little radio box at the bottom
of the form which you should select in order to show all assignable rights.
Then you can go through and pick out the right ones, and assign them to
who-ever is running the software.
