Assigning User Permissions

If you have an Administrator account, you have unlimited permissions and can assign and change permissions for Normal user accounts. When a Normal user account is assigned permissions to a functionality, that user has permissions for that specific functionality in his home location and any associated sub-locations. A user must have permissions for a location in order to view or edit the profiles, devices, or groups associated with the location.

Permissions can be assigned when a user is created, or from a specific location, profile, or mobile device group. This section describes the permissions available from the User Management page. For information on giving permissions to a user for a specific location, profile, or mobile device group, see Assigning Authorized Users.

The following table describes permissions that are available for profiles:
