Purpose: This document provides an overview of viewing users within the security system.
Viewing Users
From the left panel, you may either select the base user node (1), or one of the individual user nodes (2).
- Base User Node - When the base user node is selected all roles within the application will be displayed in the panel on the right.
- Individual User Nodes - When an individual user node is selected both Permissions Assigned and Roles Assigned to a particular user will be displayed in the panel to the right.
- User Header - The grid at the top of the panel provides the administrator with basic reference information for a particular user.
- User Name - Name used to identify the user during logon.
- Active - Indicate if the user account is active for use.
- Administrator - Indicates if the user has administrator rights.
- 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.
- Windows Authentication - This selection indicates that windows authentication will be used during the logon process.
- Roles Assigned - This list provides an accounting of all roles assigned to the user.
- Permissions Assigned - This treeview contains three nodes: Inherited, Overridden, and Combined.
- Inherited - This node lists permissions that are assigned to the user because they compose a role. For example, if the permission "Patient Enrollment" is assigned to the role "Front Desk" and this role is assigned to this user, then "Patient Enrollment" will be listed under this node.
- Overridden - This node lists permission that have been explicitly assigned or overridden at the user level.
- Combined - This node is a combination of the previous two nodes. Its contents are used to create the permissions collection that is used during the logon process. If two or more inherited permissions are conflicting, the final effective permission shown in the Combined node is determined using the Permission Hierarchy.
- Status Bar - The status bar at the bottom of each list represents a snapshot of roles and permissions. The total numbers of roles assigned to the user are displayed on the left panel. The permissions are summarized by the access status: granted, blocked, or read-only.
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.
