This procedure assigns a Unit administrator.
Permissions and Users, Groups, Roles in KnowledgeTree
| • | Permissions are not assigned to individual users in KnowledgeTree - permissions are assigned to Roles and Groups |
| • | Users inherit permissions, based on their ownership of a Role, or their membership of a Group |
| • | Groups are added to Units - when adding the group to the unit, you can define whether members of the group have unit administrator privileges in the Unit |
| • | Roles do not get Unit Administrator privileges; only Groups may be assigned as administrators in a Unit |
| • | To provide a user with administrator rights in a Unit, the user is added to a group, the group is added to the Unit, and the system administrator assigns Unit Admin privileges to members of the group |
Perform the following steps:
| 1. | Open Users and Groups in DMS Administration. |
| 2. | Has the relevant user been added to KnowledgeTree? |
| 3. | Has the relevant group been added to KnowledgeTree? |
| • | No. Add the group - this is the group that will have administrator rights on the Unit. When adding the group, you can choose to assign unit administrator privileges to all members of this group. |
| 4. | Has the unit been added in KnowledgeTree? |
| 5. | Has the group been added to the unit? |
| • | No. Add the group to the unit. When performing this task, assign Unit Admin rights to the group. |
Note: See Viewing / Editing / Deleting Groups.
| 6. | Do members of the group have Unit administrator rights on the relevant Unit? |
Note: This is the unit where the group was added, and where you wish to assign
Unit Admin privileges.
| • | Yes. In this case, the Unit now includes one or more users (members of the group) who are assigned as Unit Administrators. |
