Creating (editing) a user role

A role assigned to a user (as that user’s only role) controls what a user may view, such as personnel, badgeand access rightsviews. Typically, when you assign a role, you also choose the Personnel Entry Access Profile for the Profile property on the User tab. For convenience, you may use a personnel management role to filter views so that only personnel management views are available to a user.
Prerequisites: You are working in a Supervisor station.
  1. From the main menu, click System Setup > User Management > Roles.
  2. To open the Add New Role view click the Add button (Image) at the top of the view.
    The add new role view opens. The Role Name property appears above the tabbed area.
  3. Use the Role Name property to assign a unique name to the role.
  4. Fill in the Permissions boxes to associate with the role and click Save.
