Advanced Automation roles
Advanced Automation includes a number of roles, which can be assigned to your users as required.
When you activate Advanced Automation (as described in Activating Advanced Automation), all your existing users are automatically granted access to the functionality in Advanced Automation. During the account creation process, you can assign the relevant role to each user. Note that, by default, management portal administrators are granted the Administrator role, and read-only administrators are granted the Engineer role.
To update the role at a later date, go to Company management > Users, select the relevant user, and in the Services tab, update the role. In the same tab, you can also disable the Advanced Automation functionality for that specific user.
The table below describes each of the available roles, and the rights assigned to each role within Advanced Automation:
