These instructions will show you how to add user access levels, how to edit access for existing and new user access levels and what each item on the user access levels screen means.
Begin by selecting 1 User Access from Config on the left nav panel.
The top section shows your existing user access levels. By default, you will have the following levels: ADMIN (administrator), TCHR (teacher) and RGSTR (registrar). Note that there are two extra user types in the example below. Department Head and No Restrict Teacher are user access levels that were added as new user levels.
Note that each of these levels can be edited or deleted. Exercise caution when deleting levels. If you delete a level that has been associated with a staff member/user, that staff member/user will no longer have a user type associated with his/her login.
If you need to add a new user access level, click 2 New (if you don't need to add a new level and simply want to edit the access for an existing level, skip directly to step 5).
Type a 3 code and name for the new access level and click 4 save.
Whether you are editing an existing user level or are setting up a new user access level, select the 5 user type from the drop down and begin selecting/deselecting the items that you want to make/not make available to specific levels.
Note that if you have created a new user access level, all tick boxes are deselected. You will need to select the rights that you want to give to this new user access level. Pay special attention to item 26 Hide Financial Data. This is the one right that you are actually taking away when you tick the box. leaving this box empty will allow any user access level, with this tick missing, rights to view financial data.
