Managing user access and entitlements is essential for maintaining security and ensuring users have appropriate and relevant access. Effectively configuring user permissions enables precise control over access management.
There are five sections where permissions can be set for user groups: Admin, Resource Pools, Skills Matrices, Assets and Tags.
Admin Section
The Admin section allows you to create and manage user groups with specific entitlements. Selecting a permission grants full access to the corresponding entitlement.
Resource Pools, Skills Matrices, and Assets Sections
These sections provide granular control over user group access to specific categories. You can assign predefined permissions to ensure that each group only has access to the relevant scope of work, preventing unauthorized data sharing between groups.
Important: To assign a permissions to a user group, leave the main permission unchecked in the Admin section. For example, if you have multiple resource pools (e.g., Pool A and Pool B) and want to assign User Group A to Pool A, uncheck the main ‘Resource Pools’ permission and specifically assign Pool A under the Resource Pools section.
