Inserting data in fields First Name, Last Name, E-Mail, Login and Password is mandatory for any new user account. When you open a new user data sheet, the Valid from field is filled with the current date. The standard validity is one year.
Profiles and Roles
In the second section, either the profiles or roles of the user are displayed. Use the sidebar to change between the profiles and the roles window.
Profiles
This window shows the profiles that are assigned to the user. Use the Assign button to allocate further profiles:
Any new user needs at least one profile. Otherwise it is not possible to save the user data sheet.
Visit page Add a User to learn how to assign profiles to a user and how to set write permissions on profiles. Profiles can also be assigned via the profile data sheet (see page Edit a Profile).
Roles
Roles are used in Scheer PAS BPaaS to model role-based business processes, such as release processes. Roles can be created in the BPaaS editor during modelling as well as in the role section of the Scheer PAS Administration. The management and assignment of roles to users has to be performed exclusively in the Scheer PAS Administration though.
The roles window shows a list of all roles that are assigned to the user. You can assign further roles by clicking the Assign button.
Visit the page Add a User to learn how to assign roles to a user. Roles can also be assigned via the role data sheet (see page Edit a Role).
Further information about the modelling of role-based apps can be found on page Role-based Authorization Concept.
