Roles are saved permission profiles. They keep access the same for users with similar jobs and save you from setting permissions one by one. There is no limit to the number of roles you can create.
For most organisations an Admin role and a Reporting role are enough. A Read only role is useful when someone only needs to look at dashboards.
Admin: all Vemcount modules, user management, dashboard and report setup, and occupancy reset.
Reporting: view shared dashboards and create dashboards and reports.
Read only: view dashboards only.
How to create a role
Log in to Vemcount with Admin credentials.
Select Setup | Companies in the top menu.
Select the company.
Open Roles in the left-side menu.
Select the plus icon to create a role.
Name the role, select the users to include, and choose the permissions.
Save the role.
A role only controls what users can do. Users also need company or location access to see data. See Types of user permissions and Assign a user to Company or Location(s).
When to contact support
If you cannot see Roles in the company menu, or a permission you need is missing from the role editor, email support@vemcogroup.com with your company name and the role you are trying to set up.
