Advance Access setting up for User account

Requirements

This tutorial requires you to install the Viindoo instance.

Viindoo software is an all-in-one enterprise management system with many apps, features to help users perform many businesses in an enterprise. That’s why users need to be given access rights in order to access the apps and features to perform suitable actions (read, record/edit, create or delete records) for their position.

This article will guide you to manage access rights groups for users.

Manage Access rights group

First of all, you need to activate the developer mode (Debug mode) to see the hidden menus.

Viindoo main menu

At the Viindoo main menu, navigate to Setting ‣ Users & Companies ‣ Groups.

Access Viindoo Access right groups

When entering the Groups list, select a group to view its access rights.

Select the access right group you want to edit in Viindoo

After entering the access rights group view, select the Access Rights tab. Here, you will see a list of the models that can be accessed and the actions the access rights group can perform on that model.

Access right of a group in Viindoo
  • Name
    The technical name of the model.
  • Model
    These models can be accessed by the current group. You need to clearly identify these models when giving rights.

The next 4 columns show the actions this group can perform on the model:

Actions access in Viindoo module
  • Read Access
    The right to view and access records of the model. Without this right, the users will not be able to view as well as access the record in any way (access through URL, through the related records, etc.).
  • Write Access
    The user will be able to add or edit the content of the record. But the users won’t be able to create new records for the models (even if they use the duplicate feature).
  • Create Access
    The right to create new records or duplicate records of the model.
  • Delete Access
    The right allows the users to delete records of the model.

Example: With the Restricted Editor group of the Website app in our image, with the Website Menu model, the user is only allowed to view and create new menus on the system’s website, but will not be able to edit or delete the existed menus. However, the user can still work with the blog posts, it is because the Blog Post module is not restricted.

Warning

You shouldn’t edit these default access rights because they will be reset when updating system. In case you want to edit them, let’s contact Viindoo.
