Groups and Rights

   

The management of the user groups and their assigned rights takes place in the user groups & rights management which can be accessed in the administration menu.

 

folder_close_blManaging User Groups

The management of the user groups takes place using the menu in the left hand side of the window. Using the arrow you can call the copy function, with which a user group complete with all its settings (except for the assigned memberss) can be copied.

A list of all the users that are assigned to the selected user group is shown in the members tab. The user information can be viewed and changed by double clicking on a user.

folder_close_blDefault User Groups

A standard user group can be set under settings. Every new user that is registered is automatically assigned to this user group. Fast access to Picturepark is guaranteed in this way. The administrator can then still make any necessary adjustments in order to add the new user to any other groups they require.

The access of the selected user group on the available metadata fields can be defined in the field rights. We distinguish between three rights:

  • View: The field and the value in it is shown, but cannot be edited. If the field does not have any data entered, then it will not be shown.
  • Edit: The field is shown with its value and can be edited
  • Edit options: The available options for the field (dropdown list, radio buttons) can be edited
