After creating each required role and user, use groups to assign the role(s) to a user. See also the "Groups" chapter.

Note

Group management is separate feature package. Only the "Company" group is available by default if you have not purchased this option.

If you have created the required roles and users in your user management, you can assign these roles to every single user.

The group management is an optional feature, usually only the group "Company" is available if you have not booked this feature.

    1. Info

      When multiple roles are assigned to a user, the rights they grant are "additive". This means that if one role grants the right to edit, and another one assigned to the same user doesn't, that user maintains the right to edit.

    2. Click the [Image Added] icon to remove any role.

      Note

      Every user must have at least one role in the group, thus removing the last role from the user also removes the user from the group. This is true of all groups except for the "Company" group. The "Company" group must contain every user, thus it is not possible to delete the last remaining role assigned to a user in this case.

    Note

    There must always be at least one person with an administrator role within each group. Thus, it is not possible to remove the last admin user from a group.
