User, User Group and User Profile
User (A) |
Each user, who works with the machine, is assigned to a specific user group (B). |
User Group (B) |
Each user group has special permissions, which they need for working at the machine (C). For the work steps, which the user group may not perform, it does not receive any permission. For the work steps at the machine, the maintenance staff needs other permissions than the operator (knitter). The operator, for example, may not change any data or perform specific machine actions. The Senior Operator defines this in the corresponding user profile (Set Permissions). |
User Profile |
Working with user profiles simplifies the rights management, as only the rights of the user group are to be adapted in case of a change and not those of every single user. |
