How do I give additional permissions to user?

There are two main ways you can apply permissions to users: You can either go to the User Account and apply an additional User Role to the account, or go to the User Group that includes this User Role, and add the User/s to that Group.

It is important to remember that if DAC is enabled, Users will also need Data Access Control assigned to them. More info on DAC permissions can be found here: How does Data Access Control work?

To add a new User Role to a User Account by Copying:

1. Navigate to User Accounts, and double click into the relevant User Account and click Edit.

2. Under the Permissions Tab you can copy another User's Permissions by Clicking on "Copy from" and selecting the User you wish to copy from.

3. This will populate the same User Roles and User Groups. Click Save to finish.

This is beneficial when a User will definitely have the same User Roles, such as if they a replacement, however care should be taken to ensure that these are the correct User Roles and User Groups for this user.
