Permissions

High Precision User and Role Based Permissions

You want to control who has access to your company. Depending on your industry, you may have to control who has access to approvals, manufacturing, and users. DataNinja makes this easy through Permissions in your settings. Most permissions nestled under the permission field can be understood at a glance. Pay close attention to the “Create” and “Delete” permissions as you assign permissions to users. If you have questions about a specific permission, please contact us.

Team Roles

You can add a role (like Admin) to any of the permissions. Anyone assigned to that role will then have that permission. This is a quick way to assign multiple users a permission. DataNinja comes with Admin, Production Admin, RedEscalation, and YellowEscalation. You can add other roles if you would like. See the Team Roles page for more details.

Changing and Adding Permissions

To change or add permissions click on the gear in the upper right corner, find "Settings" on the left side of the dropdown, and click on permissions.

Each "Manage Access" area has multiple functionalities based permission controls. You can allow access by Team Role or by User.
