Edit User Permissions

Instructions

1. Go to: System Admin >User Setup.

2. Select "Permissions" from the Process Menu on the left hand side of the screen.

• A. Run Print Outs - Allows the User to use the Print Outs dropdown.
• B. System Admin - Allows the User access to setup and edit Checklists, Checkpoints, Projects, Responsible Parties, and Customization Preferences, but cannot setup Users or access account management.
• C. Import/Export - Allows the User to import and export data files such as Checklist, Project, and Responsible Party information.  Import is a feature available to subscription plans of 10 users or more.
  
• D. Data Overwrite/Delete - Allows the User with Data In/Out additional permissions to overwrite existing data with imported data.
  • Users with "Overwrite/Delete" permissions selected can delete Inspection and Test Reports. The Delete permission only pertains to items in the "Inspection" area, such as new inspections (even if the user is creating them) and existing inspections (even if the user created them). This does not change the ability for users with "Setup" permissions from being able to "Delete" items in the Setup area, such as checklists, projects, phases, etc.
  • Users with "Overwrite/Delete" permissions selected can change the inspection date shown on reports, dashboards, and query filtering criteria. Date changes with the new date are recorded on activity log and the revised date will then appear as the inspection date where applicable.
• E. User Management - Allows adding new users, and manage user settings & permissions.
• F. Restricted - Restricted users can have "Inspect and Edit Inspect" Permissions. Or, only "Edit Inspect" Permissions.
• G. Inspections By Me - Use “Inspect by Me” permission to tightly control third party inspector access to only inspections they create. This permission gives an inspector permission to inspect on allowable projects but not allowing them to view any inspections performed by others..
• H. Self Insp. Only - This will make it so that the user's affiliated responsible party is pre-selected as the responsible party in the inspection selection process.
  • In other words, the user will only see or can only select inspections for which he/she is the responsible party and will not have to select himself or his company from a list of other possible responsible parties.
  • There several reasons why you might want to setup a particular user with 'self-inspect-only'. One reason is that if you have foremen doing self-inspections, they will no longer have to select themselves as the responsible party before starting their inspections. If you want the user to be able to select from a small list of responsible parties, you can add them as a "Responsible Person" of a "Responsible Party". See instructions here: Assign a Resp. Party Crew or Person to a Project.
  • Another reason you might want to use the 'self-inspect-only' only permission setting is if you want your subcontractors, suppliers, or vendors to do self-inspections. We're calling them self-inspections, because the assumption is that the user will be "Affiliated" with themselves in User Setup, which means the user is affiliated with him/herself as the Responsible Party. 
• I. Limited Entry - This role allows clients and third party inspectors use the inspection screen, but are limited to rating a checkpoint (using the evaluation buttons), taking pictures and making observation notes. The other checkpoint details are hidden, including responsible party selection drop down, due date, reason/corrective action codes, comments, corrective action notes, ready for review status, and key metrics. The main use to allow Limited Entry users to provide you with their inspection observations, but isolate them from details of your corrective action process. Perfect for subcontractors to report completion of their work, or clients to document and approve the completion of your work.
• J. Plan Mode Required - Prevents the User from performing inspections outside the ITP plan or accessing checklists that aren't part of the inspection plan
• K. Account Management - Gives the User access to Account level settings, such as primary account contact, subscription level, and credit card on file.
