Edit User Pop-Up

You can manage details for each user in the New \ Edit User window.

Name, email address, university ID and role assignment are located in the header, while further settings can be edited in the following tabs:

• Account settings: personal data, including the status (Inactive) settings.
• Groups settings: group membership of the user.
  Every group is listed here which the user is currently a member of. If you search and add a new group on this page, the user is automatically added to the group as well. Also, a user can be removed from a group by deleting the group from the list.
• Privileges: here you can check which privileges your user holds according to its role.

   You can either change the role to another default role or choose the Custom role and select the preferred privileges.

Role assignment (& privileges)

Each user needs a role, and roles can only be assigned in the New \ Edit User window.

Roles & Privileges

The system distinguishes between roles and privileges.
Roles are the way to refer to the type of users (e.g., Learner, SP, Instructor, ect.). In contrast, privileges are the capabilities of users. Privileges limit what users can access in the system (e.g. what they see on their dashboard).

Roles vary from simple ones with one or a few privileges to complex ones with several privileges.

Default roles

Default roles can be selected from the Role drop-down menu in Accounts in the Edit Users tab. To check the privileges of each role, select a role, and go to Privileges.

Custom roles

Using Custom, you can create a custom role for your user.

After selecting Custom from the Role drop-down in the Edit User tab, the view will change to Privileges. Select the privileges you want to grant for your user.
