7. Roles Management

In the ZPad Plus environment, Roles are the set of permissions that can be assigned to an employee or a group of employees regarding the functions of the device. For example, a role can be set that forbids the editing of T&A Settings but allows the checking of T&A Records. Another role can be set that allows only the punching, with no additional permissions.

Roles are managed in the Roles app. It is not possible to manage an addition, modification or deletion permission individually. When a role includes a permission, it means that the whole operation of the permission being set is allowed. Except for the webserver permission, the permissions of the role assigned to an employee define the apps the employee can access in the apps page.

Roles that can be set include the following permissions:

  • Roles manager: Lets the assigned employee access the Roles App
    • System administrator: Lets the assigned employee access the System Settings
  • Webserver user: The assigned employee can access the webserver as an administrator.
    Warning: The assigned employee also needs to have a Password created in order to access the web server as an administrator.
    • T&A Manager: Lets the user access the Employees App and the T&A Settings App
  • Apps Dashboard: The assigned employee can only access the Messages app and the T&A Records app. Disabling this permission also disables the rest of the permissions except the Webserver permission

By default, the device includes a Super Admin role that has full permissions. If no employees are assigned to the Super Admin role, no restrictions will be enforced when accessing the apps.

The user, having the required role, can create new Roles, edit the existing user-made roles and delete any of the existing user-made roles.
