Next Field uses a role system to define what the user has access to. The roles are divided into two different levels; 'Company' and 'Project' level. User access on a Company level is for employees working in your company, while users on a Project level can be anyone working with that project; your own organization, partner organizations, and subcontractors.

Company

Admin
A Company Admin can invite colleagues to their organization's account in Next Field. They can edit organizational information, and they can set up standardized tags (key-words) to be accessible for all projects that will be created. Learn more about standardized tags by clicking here.
​

An Admin can also get access to all projects created under their company, whether they have a direct connection to that project or not. Click here to see how you can add yourself to a project.

Normal
A normal user has limited access but can edit their personal information, and they can create projects without having to receive an invitation by email from an Admin.

Project

Project owner
​
The user that creates a project will automatically be regarded as the project owner. The project owner has access to all functions within that project:

  • Delete the project

  • Upload, edit and delete pictures and drawings

  • See, edit and delete all items (Both 'My items' and 'All items')

  • Edit all project information.

  • Create reports based on all items in the project.

  • Invite users to the project, both 'Normal' users and 'Admin' users.

  • Give other users the Project owner role.

Project admin
A 'Project admin'
can do anything a project owner can but does not have the possibility to delete the project, nor give the 'Project owner' title to another user.

Project normal
​
A 'Normal' user can only create items, receive items, and invite other users to the project, as a 'Normal' user.
