Re: Sample of autorities given to user roles

 

Hi Kader,

Olav is probably right; one would typically give everyone access to the
dashboard (but not necessarily analytic modules), which is usually the
default start page (go to System Settings - Appearance to change). Then all
you need is one role that contains the authority to view the dashboard and
assign the role to all users, including data entry staff.

Alternatively, make sure that the authority for dashboard access is
included in all roles.
