Example documentationExample of User Permissions Across Multiple Contexts Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

You can assign the same user to more than one group for the same context. If this is the case, the user gains a superset of all of the user's group permissions when using that context.

Example 1

In this example, the Executive and Development groups are both assigned to Context A, and user Tom is a member of both the Executive group and the Development group. Therefore, user Tom can create scorecards and initiatives when using context A.

  • Application Group: Executive

  • Member: User Tom

  • Permissions: Create/Edit Scorecards

  • Context: A

  • Application Group: Development

  • Member: User Tom

  • Permissions: Create Initiatives

  • Context: A

Example 2

In this example, the Executive group is assigned to Context A and the Development group is assigned to Context B. User Tom is a member of both the Executive group and the Development group. Therefore, user Tom can create scorecards when using context A and can create initiatives when using context B.

  • Application Group: Executive

  • Member: User Tom

  • Permissions: Create/Edit Scorecards

  • Context: A

  • Application Group: Development

  • Member: User Tom

  • Permissions: Create Initiatives

  • Context: B

Example 3

In this example, the Executive and Development groups are both assigned to Context A. The Development group is also assigned to context B. User Tom is a member of both the Executive group and the Development group. Therefore, user Tom can create scorecards and initiatives when using context A. User Tom can create initiatives but not scorecards when using context B.

  • Permissions: Create/Edit Scorecards

  • Application Group: Development
