7. Security and Roles

User & Administration Guide — Version 1.0.0.49

Guide summary

Access is a combination of the SharePoint site, the Policy & Attestation role, and optional SharePoint group membership.

On this page

Roles

  • Employee reads assigned policies and records acknowledgments for their own rows.
  • Manager sees completion and overdue items for assigned people and can receive escalation mail.
  • Admin manages policies, assignments, export, settings, and security.

How a role is chosen

  • Open Security to map a user or a SharePoint group to a role.
  • A direct assignment wins over a SharePoint group.
  • A site owner with no assignment stays an Admin and always keeps Security access.
  • Employees see their own acknowledgment rows. Signing is checked against the signed-in person.

Library permissions for policy files and receipts follow the SharePoint site unless an administrator changes them in SharePoint. The Security page does not replace those library permissions.
