Page History

There are 6 different roles, or access levels, a user can have in feed®. 4 "standard" roles and two "special" roles.

Administrators have access to create users and forms/schemas to grant access to their feed®.

When you acquire feed it is important to discuss user roles. If every user get administrator access, everyone can create, edit and delete "basic data". This might not be a good idea in regards to good integration and master data management.  

Access roles:

• Info
  These users have read-only access to product information in feed® and cannot edit data.
  
  
• User
  This is a "normal" user of feed®. They have access to view and edit product information in feed®, including bulk updates, import and export via Excel, and product overview.
  Users can also see information about "basic data" but do not have access to edit it.
  
  
• Superuser
  In addition to what a regular "User" has access to, "Superusers" can also edit master data and configure settings in feed®.
  
  
• Administrator
  Same access as "Superuser," but also has access to user management. Administrators can create and edit access levels for feed® users.

Roles with limitations to product data access

• Schema
  This is a special role linked to an access form that controls which products and basic data one has access to view on these products.
  This requires the creation of a form that must be assigned to the user.
  
  
• Translator
  This is a role that only provides access to the translation functionality in feed®. Users with the "Translator" role have no access to products or product information, import or export, only to the function for translating fixed and custom text prompts in the solution.

Schemas and schema user access

Only administrators can create Schemas and add users with schema access.

As mentioned, there are 2 types of forms that need to be created in order to use the role "Schema" for a user. "Product schema" and "Information schema". 
These control which products the user has access to, what the user can see, and what they are allowed to do with these products.

There are some limitations for users with the role "Schema"

• They cannot modify data fields in the product header.
• They do not have access to Excel product import.
• They do not have access to Excel image import.
• They do not have access to add, change or delete basic data (only product data).
• They do not have access to structures.

Product schema

Creation of this schema provides you with these filters

Image Modified

This controls which products users with this form have access to. Here you can limit access to products based on specified:

• Product owners
• Product statuses
• Product groups
• Suppliers

If nothing is registered for one of these, there is implicit access to products regardless of the value in the relevant field. In the example above, for instance, there are no restrictions on which Supplier a product has, but only products with Product Owner = Odd-Inge, Status = Active products, and belonging to product groups Dimmers or Garden Furniture. The group "Telecom-IT" has been searched for and is ready to be added but has not yet been added as a valid product group for this product form.

1. Use the search fields to search and filter on access. This uses AND logic

Information schema

Information schema controls what the schema user have access to.

You can create write access or read only access to individual attributes and texts that you add to the user. 

Some data you can also deny access to. 

1. The pen symbol gives you the option to change the name of the schema, or delete it. 
2. Media permission: Media bank access - read/write/deny access
3. ETIM permission: Etim data access- read/write/deny access
4. Package permission: The option to view or add/change available packages and package information on products- read/write/deny access
5. Relation permission: The option to view or add/remove available relations, and add/change products on these on a product - read/write/deny access
6.  "Attributes" gives you the option to search and add entire attribute groups, or single attributes to the access. By default, attributes are added with read access, but by clicking on the eye icon , one can change this to write access. Likewise you can change write access to read access by clicking on the pen icon.
7. "Texts"let you search for text fields the schema user will get access to. By default, texts are added with read access, but by clicking on the eye icon, one can change this to write access. Likewise you can change write access to read access by clicking on the pen icon.

All attributes and texts that users should have access to must be registered here with either read or write access.
