Roles and permissions

Roles

In User Administration, you can define individual roles that customize the rights of your groups of users. Later, the role can be assigned to a specific user in a specific project in the Project Permissions view. The predefined roles are Project Administrator, Project User (Rm+Tm), Project User (Rm), Project User (Tm), Project User (View only) and Project Assignment.

The roles Project Administrator and Project Assignment cannot be changed due to internal processes and connection to external tools.

The Select-Box named "License" allows highlighting permissions given by license. After that, "Set permissions from license(s)" allows defining a role based on a given license if needed. In this way you can analyse, if a set of permissions fits to a given license.

Permissions overview

In aqua you can define roles with more than 100 different permissions, that can be activated separately. Some of them can be activated as Assigned or Owned. If you select Assigned, the user is allowed to change items which he is assigned to. If you select Owned, the user is allowed to change items that he created. If you define for example a role Developer for users which should just be able to edit defects which are assigned to them, you would choose Assigned at Defect Management - Edit items and Delete Items. In the following, you will find an overview of the permissions you can set.
