Create User Role

Administration > User Permissions > User Roles

Creating a complete user role is a 3 part process:

  • Create the User Role
  • Assign Functions to the Role
  • Define Access Levels for the Functions.
  • User Roles are not required, but make it easier to create User Profile when multiple users have the same tasks.
  •  

    Create a User Role when logged in as a Corporate Administrator

    • Click https://demo.hstpathways.com/HstAscWebServiceWCF/Help/Images/New.jpgNew on the Main Form Toolbar
    • Enter the name of the User Role in the Description field.  
    • Enter any specifics regarding the User Role in the Role Details field.

    Role List

    • Show Corporate radio dial will display any User Roles created at the Corporate level.
    • Show Center radio dial will display any User Roles created at the Center level.
    • Center ID will reflect the available Centers in which the new User Role can be assigned. Select a Center from the drop down to assign the new User Role to that Center.

    Role functions

    Drag and Drop

    Drag and drop either a single Function or Category.

    • Highlight/select either a Category or a Function within a category.
    • Hold down the left mouse key to Drag the Category or Function over to the User functions grid.
