Primavera Unifier offers a flexible yet powerful permission-based security system, as opposed to role-based security. Role-based security by definition limits the user to a fixed set of functions or tasks. With permission-based security, access to all modules, functions and tasks in Primavera Unifier is controlled by granting each user any combination of permissions. These permissions consist of the ability to access specific Primavera Unifier tasks, and to perform specific actions within those tasks, such as create, modify, and view.
For ease of use, permissions can be set for both individuals and for groups of users. You can even copy permissions from one user to another, and then make modifications.
A user may belong to any (or all) of the administration groups and perform functions as a company, program, or project or shell administrator. Company Administrators generally have program and project or shell permissions, and may or may not work within the specific projects or shells. You may want a project, shell, or program administrator to have the ability to perform some company administrator functions, such as creating a project or shell. Creating different types of user permission templates will help you to more easily grant access to different staff members, whether they are administrative staff, engineers or architects, managers, vendors or subcontractors, IT personnel, etc.
Use default permissions as a guideline, but your users’ actual permission settings will depend on your organizations needs.
