User Roles

User Roles

Essential Roles

The platform comes with a set of essential roles to cover the basic needs. These essential user roles are dependent on the tenant role (the role of the company on the platform - e.g. Machine Operator, Service Provider or App Developer).


Basic Roles

Each tenant has a basic set of permissions and a Tenant Admin has essential roles allowing to manage the own tenants on the platform.

Tenant admin

The focus of the Tenant Admin is to administrate his company accounts. He has no permissions for operational work.

  • This role needs to be assigned to at least one tenant user - the first user that is invited to create a new tenant is always a Tenant Admin.

  • Main permissions are User Invitation & Management and Role Assignment.

User & Access Management

  • Invite and delete users of the own tenant

  • Assign roles & scope to users

Tenant Configuration

  • Manage Company information

  • Manage appearance of the platform for all users of the tenant

Tenant admins are NOT able to delete their own account or unassign the admin role from their own account. The purpose is to prevent tenants from being unable to work without an administrator.

Data Analyst - Controller

The idea of the "Data Analyst - Controller" is to have a role that is dedicated for reporting via API. The role has no permissions in the frontend nor any update, manager or delete permission. On the other side "Data Analysts" are able to read all relevant objects. This includes features of the Basic, Service Provider and Operator tenant role.
