Modes of Operation and Access Control
Modes of Operation
Working with the modules (grouping nodes and functional nodes) in the system can be done in the following two modes of operation:
- User mode
:Used to enter and access information and perform tasks within the system. Most users do their work in User mode. User mode lets users perform the day-to-day activities, collaborate through business processes and Mailbox, maintain managers (for example, Cost Manager and Document Manager), and run reports.
- Admin mode
:Used for all administrative tasks within the system to set up and configure features and modules. Access to Admin mode functions is usually limited to a few users within a company. Company administrators work in Admin mode to set up, for example, company or project/shell properties, user permissions, templates for major features, data structures, and configure and set up business process (BP) workflows.
You can switch between modes using the mode icon (User mode and Admin mode).
Access Control
As a user, you must have permission to access the modules, or functions, in the system. The permissions to the various modules, or functions, are granted by the Company Administrator, in Admin mode. Contact your Company Administrator if you cannot access a module or function in the system.
