Multiple Non-Admin Account Using User Roles Feature For Ingress & TCMSv3
Multiple personnel logins using the same admin account might cause a huge problem for the main admin who uses the software only to manage attendance, payroll and users’ information. A non-admin who has full access throughout the software might tamper with important data related to the software; employee attendance, delete user credentials, or set door access level, etc. Limitations can be created to ensure that these non-admins do not have access to a certain feature within the software.
Introducing User Roles!
Here are some benefits of utilizing User Roles:
Improved security and access control.
Granular permission control for different tasks and resources.
Increased transparency and accountability.
Here are the steps to create your User Roles account.
In Ingress, log in as an Admin user, open System Settings > User Roles > Add Role > Customize.
Figure 1: Customize settings for non-admin users
In the Customize section, tick on the features you want to enable or disable for the non-admin user account. Next, click OK.
Figure 2: Example of features selected to be enabled later
Next, click on User Account > Add Account. Configure the username and password to create a non-admin account. Then, click OK.
Figure 3: Create the non-admin account
The created account will be listed under the User Account lists.
Figure 4: Non-admin user accounts that have been created will be shown in the list
To test whether these features have taken effect with the new non-admin account, log in from the Admin account, and log in using the newly created non-admin account.
Figure 5: Input the non-admin username & password
Go to Attendance > Attendance Sheet. As you can see from the figure below, only the functions enabled (Generate Attendance Record & Download Transaction Log) are available to this non-admin account. So, non-admin users can not tamper with other buttons within the page.
