User Role Dialog Groups Sub-Tab

This section includes the fields and descriptions for the User Role Dialog Groups sub-tab.

Field Description
Groups

Select groups to be assigned to the user role. Choose between existing groups created in the Groups workspace. Groups determine user access in Maconomy workspaces. If the portal has been installed, groups also determine the roles to which the user is assigned to in the portal.

You can assign multiple groups to one user role. If a user role is granted access to more than one group, access is provided for the combined functions and rights of the groups. You can only assign a user role to a group to which you yourself are assigned. The order in which the groups are specified in the sub-tab is important if different workspace layouts are used in the system.

When the user opens a workspace, Maconomy checks if a layout has been specified for the workspace in the group at the top of the sub-tab. If so, that layout is used. If no layout has been specified in the top group, Maconomy checks if a layout has been specified in the second group in the table, and so on. If no layouts have been specified in any of the groups, the standard layout for the workspace is used.
