Administrator can view, add, edit, delete users and set their permissions.
To manage users accounts, go to Settings > Control Panel > Users.
There are three user types:
- Guest - shared account
- User - normal user
- Admin - administrator (can view system tab and Raw Data, manage license, users etc.)
Permissions for specific application features depend on the selected user type:
Feature / User | My Account | Favorites | Control Panel | Module permissions | View System tab | Change Display Names | Change Time-Window |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Guest | Read | None | None | None/Read | No | No | No |
| User | Write | Write | None | None/Read/Write | No | No | Yes |
| Admin | Write | Write | Write | None/Read/Write | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Selection of User Type implies pre-defined permissions for My Account, Favorites, System tabs, Control Panel, Display Names and Time-Window.
