Introduction

The role configurator in softgarden allows administrators to manage user groups (roles) individually and adjust permissions specifically. This ensures that each user role receives exactly the functions and access required for their area of responsibility.

Features of the Role Configurator

With the role configurator, you can:

  • create new roles and assign permissions specifically.

  • adjust existing roles to reflect changes in the recruiting process.

  • precisely control access rights so that users can only use relevant functions.

  • use a user-friendly interface to make changes easily and efficiently.

💡 Recommendation

Use existing roles as templates: We recommend using the existing roles and creating new roles based on them. This way, you can maintain a consistent permission structure and make targeted adjustments.

Regular review of roles: Roles and permissions should be reviewed regularly to ensure they meet the current requirements of your company.

Documentation and internal coordination: Before creating new roles, it is advisable to coordinate the requirements with relevant team members and maintain clear documentation of the permissions.
