Effect of role permissions on menus
This page lists the effect that roles have on the menus in Enswitch.
Pseudo users
- Under 'Default role for' section.
- Setting this role to Yes in the settings of a role means that new users that are created under that role from then onward are pseudo users.
- This option cannot be set to Yes in more than one role. This is why setting this to Yes in one role will automatically set this option to No in any other role where this was previously set to Yes.
- Note: each customer has a special user called a pseudo user and on the we interface this is shown as the customer name between square brackets, eg [Customer A]. When a user switches into a customer in the Enswitch web interface (as opposed to switching into another specific user), they switch into the pseudo user of that customer.
- Corresponds to the value 'reports' in the roles_access.privilege column.
- Up to Enswitch 3.15, renamed to 'Run reports' after version 4.0.
- Affects the appearance of the 'Reports' section on the left side menu.
Run reports
- Corresponds to the value 'reports' in the roles_access.privilege column.
- From Enswitch 4.0 onwards, it is only a rename of the 'Reports menu' privilege that was in effect until version 3.15.
- Affects the appearance of the 'Reports' section on the left side menu.
