User Access and Permissions (Topic Outline)

Article Details

Managing your employees' access to Gingr is critical just like with any other piece of software. While we provide all the tools to help you keep your data secure, it's up to you to make sure you have proper procedures in place. These articles will go over the tools available to you in the app that can help you manage employee access and permissions, how to revoke user access when an employee leaves your company, and best practices that you can follow to keep your data secure.

User groups are a way to categorize user accounts and provide different levels of permissions to different people. When configuring your groups, you must decide which of your employees should have which access.

 

Before You Begin

  • It is highly recommended that each of your staff members uses their own user account. Gingr allows you to assign different user permissions to each user and important functions might be restricted. Logging in as oneself also provides accountability and the ability to track the actions each person takes (see our article on the History Page for more information).

  • Do not remove the Gingr Support user from the Admin group so that Gingr Support team can assist you. 

  • In order to update an account other than the one you are currently logged into, you must have the permission Can Manage User Accounts enabled.

  • You must have the user permissions Can Edit User Groups and Can Manage Group Permissions enabled to edit User Permissions or User Groups. If, for any reason, you wish to turn off the Can Edit User Groups AND Can Manage Group Permissions, you must first turn them on in another group and put yourself in that group before you turn these permissions off in the Admin Group. These two permissions must always be on in at least one group.
