System Administrator Topic: see MultiTerm Administrator
A user's access rights within a particular termbase depend on the roles that the user belongs to, and the rights granted by those roles.
Each role can grant different access rights.
In order to access termbase data a user has to be a member of a termbase role. Whenever you add a user to a termbase, they are automatically added to the predefined Public role.
There are two predefined roles in the MultiTerm system, Expert User and Public.
Note |
A member who has multiple roles gains the sum of the access rights belonging to those roles. A role cannot restrict access rights granted by another role. |
If a user tries to access a server-based termbase but does not belong to any role in the termbase, an error message is displayed.
An Expert User role is automatically created for a termbase when the termbase is created, and you cannot delete it. You can edit the role, but this is not recommended.
The Expert User role grants read, write and delete access to all entries in the termbase, and to all fields in the entries. The Expert User can also Import and Export termbase data.
The termbase creator is a default member of the Expert User role as well as the Super user. You can remove all users except super from this role.
A Public Role is created in a termbase when the termbase is created, and you cannot delete it. You can edit the role, but this is not recommended.
The Public role grants read access to all entries in the termbase, and to all fields in the entries.
When you Add a User to a Termbase, the user is automatically made a member of the Public role.
The guest user is always a member of the Public role. You can remove all users from this role except guest.
