Viewing Roles

Glossary Item Box

Purpose: This document provides an overview of viewing roles within the security system.

Viewing Roles

From the left panel, you may either select the base role node (1), or one of the individual role nodes (2). 

  1. Base Role Node - When the base role node is selected all roles within the application will be displayed in the panel on the right.
  2. Individual Role Nodes - When an individual role node is selected both Permissions Assigned and Users Assigned to a particular role will be displayed in the panel to the right.
    • Role Header - The grid at the top of the panel is provided to inform the administrator of the role's purpose as well as the role's auditing settings.
      1. Description - Used to identify the purpose and function of the role.
      2. Auditing - Selection of either auditing event overrides its corresponding lower level selection. For example, if the selection is made at the role level it will override any selection made at the permission level. If the selection is made at the user level it will override any selection made at the role or permission levels. Please refer to the "Permission Properties" help topic for further information.
        • Application Events - When checked a log will be updated each time the permission is accessed. For example, if the patient enrollment permission has the application event selected, every time the form is accessed a log entry would be created.
        • Data Events - This event works in conjunction with the actual form properties or business object settings. It is used to track data changes: creating records, editing records, or deleting records. It is controlled by the application developer and is placed on the header for reference.

          • Note: The auditing functionality described above was not included with the 1.5 release of Strataframe. This functionality will become available with a future release.

    • Permissions Assigned - All permissions that have been attached to the role will be displayed.
    • Users Assigned - All users that have been attached to the role will be displayed.
    • Status Bar - The status bar at the bottom of each list represents a snapshot of permissions and users. The permissions are summarized by the access status: granted, blocked, or read-only. The total numbers of users assigned to the role are displayed on the right panel.
