For customized roles, both packages can be enabled at a time.

Two states of drop-down menu

  • Not Allowed—No access to the package

For stand-alone DLS, workgroup DLS only and ES only installation, operator by default will only see following default roles:

  • Administrators
  • Operators

  • Administrators
  • Operators
  • SA Administrators
  • Facility Managers
  • HR Operators
  • Guards

Role Customization

The default roles are not customizable (not reprogrammable). Operator will not be allowed to modify default role permission attributes at all. If customize permissions are required, operator must create a new customized role type.

Role types by Packages

DLS Stand-alone/Workgroup and ES

Operators will full access to ‘manage operators’ permission will be able to create and manage other operators and role types within DLS client.

Web SA Add-On

Operators with ‘manage operators’ permission will be able to create and manage operators from DLS and Web SA clients but they would only be able to add/edit role types from DLS client (pending permission). No roles types can be created from Web SA Client by operators at any level.

Stand-Alone & Workgroup Web SA

Administrator, SA Administrator and Facility Managers by default, will be able to create and manage operators but will not be able to create customized role types in Web SA packages. They will only be able to use default role types and there permission attributes.

    Groups1.png

Please note, if an operator with administrative rights is created, this operator will still follow the account group permissions. For example, if an operator is created with administrative rights and only given access to ‘Ontario’ folder (shown above) then upon login this operator should only have access to accounts under ‘Ontario’ folder.

Existing Customer Permissions

Permissions have been revamped in such a fashion that it will be easier for operators to create new role types, assign permission attributes and create new operators. With new permissions flow, we have moved to one-to-one permission model (one operator assigned to one role type). It is must recommended that you revisit your permissions to make sure your desired permission configuration is still programmed and recreate if necessary.
