Configuring Loftware Enterprise SP Users

Configuring users in Loftware Enterprise SP means managing the user's access permissions, role and group membership, and label template and device availability.

A user in Loftware Enterprise SP is anyone who needs to work within the user interface.

For a user to perform actions, he or she must be granted a role. You can grant a role to a user by assigning a role to a group and then granting the user membership in that group.

A user must also be granted access (the ability to perform an action) on folders.

Considerations

Users can be as specific or general as needed.

User names are not case sensitive.

Best Practices

Configure permissions for roles, assign roles to groups, and add users to the group. For more information, see Create or Modify a User.

Important! It is recommended that you grant Read permission for Users to all users. If a user does not have Read permission for Users, User - Access Denied is displayed in place of the user name in Status and elsewhere in Loftware Enterprise SP.

Important! In most situations, you should assign Read permission for Model Status (Auto Refresh) to all users as a role-based permission. Unlike most permissions, there are no object access permissions for Model Status (Auto Refresh).

Note: Although a user inherits the roles of a group in which the user has membership, those roles are displayed only on the Roles dialog box for the group, not on the Roles dialog box for the user or the Users dialog box for the role.
