Using the General tab

The General tab allows you to assign the roles to the user. The assigned roles determine the user's accessibility in the application. The following table describes the standard roles that can be assigned to a user.

See User Permissions.

User roles apply to all data models. You can combine roles to give a user more privileges. A user with the view and admin roles has these access rights:

  • Read and write access to the administration functions
  • Read-only access to the rest of the data

The Planners require at least the scheduler role.
