Permissions and User Roles
User permissions are managed by a list of groups which may consist of one or more users. Groups allow the administrators the ability to manage the amount of access a specific user group has to the WithoutWire features. Any groups created are shared between all warehouses in the system. This security feature can be modified at any time by clicking on the Edit link beside a group. This feature is found in the System Maintenance Tab > Security > List Groups
To Add a Group
Click on the ADD GROUP button.
Enter the desired Group Name to be created in the Group Name field.
Roles are divided by:
Web Roles – Functions found on the WoW website.
Mobile Roles – Functions found on the iOS device
Report Roles – Reports found under Report List.
Clicking the box beside any function will allow a user from this group access to that function.
Click on the Save button to create the group or click the Cancel button to exit without saving.
To Edit a Group
Click the Edit Roles button next to the group you would like to Edit.
Roles are divided by:
Web Roles – Functions found on the WoW website.
Mobile Roles – Functions found on the iOS device
Report Roles – Reports found under Report List.
To unassign a role, remove the check in the box next to the role you wish to unassign.
Assign a new role by clicking on the box beside any function that will allow a user from this group access to that function.
Click on the Save button to create the group or click the Cancel button to exit without saving.
Keep in Mind
Some Roles are subsystems of others. These are noted by indentation below the feature. If any subsystems are to be assigned, the feature must be assigned as well. Generally, when assigning groups, it is best to assign feature roles first, then deselect the subsystem roles that the user should not have access to.
It’s important to realize that in order for a user to view reports, they must have the “Report List” Web Role assigned to them (1st Column), as well as the reports that they can see, which can be selected in the 3rd column.
The EDIT button will allow you to specify whether the group will have the ability to edit allocations or destinations for inventory requests.
