About access rights

You can determine which features users have access to by defining access rights.

Access rights control the point at which various users are active in the document cycle, the type of documents they can manage, and the operations that they can carry out. Roles allow you to manage user access rights.
Important: Make configuration changes in a test environment and confirm they work before copying them to a production environment. For dedicated SaaS deployments, test the changes and then ask IXIASOFT Customer Support to copy the changes to your production environment.
Note: Companies with a complex user hierarchy might use groups as well as roles to assign access rights. For example, some organizations might create a “Senior Writers” group and another named “Summer Students”, each with different levels of access.
