Users need appropriate permissions to log in to and work on with the business systemplatform. Profiles are designed to manage permissions. A user will not be able to work on with the business system unless a platform unless at least one profile has been assigned to his account.
The necessary standard profiles for your business system are provided with your Scheer PAS Administration. These standard profiles contain all basic permissions for users of your business system.

Every Scheer PAS Administration includes an administrator's profile:

platform_admin

This profile has to be assigned to any administrator who should be able to log in to the Scheer PAS Administration.

Info

You can only access the Scheer PAS Administration if profile platform_admin has been assigned at least to one user. Therefore, every Scheer PAS Administration is delivered with one standard administration user.

This standard user contains the profiles platform_admin and analytics_admin.

At least one standard profile must be assigned to each user. Administrators can create new profiles by choosing the sidebar menu Add Profile.

The platform distinguishes two types of profiles:

  • Profiles without Namespace are used exclusively to manage required access rights for the different platform components.
  • Profiles with Namespace allow users to save content. If a user should create new content in one of the platform components, he or she needs a dedicated namespace his or her work can be saved to. In addition to your dedicated namespace, you may have shared namespaces to collaborate with other users

Other standard profiles are:
