Roles (permissions)

OFCA settings app currently doesn't allow customization of roles and assigned permissions - but this feature is planned for future releases. So, in order to fully understand user management and administration in OFCA it is first required to understand existing roles and their configuration.

Currently OFCA contains 2 levels of roles:

• user roles
• user group roles

User roles

User roles, as their name implies, can be asigned only to users. OFCA contains 4 user roles:

• SalesRep - general sales personel using app on daily basys to conduct business
• Configurator - users with the ability to create and maintain companies products portfolio and set up system-wide constants
• Manager - users with usual managerial permission with access to all offers in the system, ability to export detailed reports and approve offers that require additional approval
• Admin - users that have access to settings app

Configuration of permissions assigned to each of user roles can be found in the table bellow:

User roles can be combined in any way system administrators want in order to gain specific set of permissions for each user.

User group roles

User group roles, again as their name implies, are roles that can be assigned to user groups. User groups purpose is to allow system adimistrators to fine-tune level and type of permissions which they want to assign to specific users. They can be seen as specific extension of permissions assigned to user via user role. OFCA contains 8 user groups:

• ManagersApprovers - gives users managerial permissions  to approve offers
• LockedOfferGroup - gives users managerial permissions to lock offers 
• Reporters - gives users managerial permissions to view reports
• SalesSuperUsers - gives users managerial permissions on offer management level 
• SalesBonusGroup - 
• Configurators - gives users configurator permissions (except updating options) 
• DiscountEligibleUsers - gives users managerial permissions to update offer discount 
• SalesStandardUsers - gives userssales representative permissions 

Configuration of permissions assigned to each of user group roles can be found in the table bellow:

Quite a lot of overlaping in permission can be seen between user roles and user group roles, but some of them do provide set of specific permissions allowing you to configure users permission just the way you want.

User management

As mentioned before one of functionalities of settings app is user management. All of user management functionalities can be found on User tab in settings app. Available options in that regard are pretty standard for modern applications, so you can:
