Administrator Role Options
This document provides an overview of the various administrator roles that can be assigned to users.
Navigate to Edit Staff or Staff List, and find the user you would like to administer.
Note that you can impersonate users at any time to test your setting changes, by navigating to impersonate in the same menu.
Exit impersonation by selecting the impersonated users red name on the top right.
Each role is discussed below.
System Admin grants a user access to the wider system administrator settings. This role is typically granted to a small number of high-level users.
Attendance admin grants the user access to the Attendance admin part of the Admin menu. It must be stacked with the System Admin role.
This role grants the user access to student information. It allows users to search, view and alter attendance centrally for a student (alteration can only occur for courses that the user is assigned to).
This role has limited utility when the system is integrated with Canvas (as student data comes from Canvas). It will allow you to change students’ tags.
This role allows a user to report across all sub-accounts, via the Report menu in the main navigation.
Note - To give a user access to report across a subset of sub accounts, the system report option should be deselected. Instead the user should be granted report access to the specific sub account in the sub account list. This will restrict the ability or that user to select other courses in the course selection dialog of the report. Note that reports that do not use a course selection dialog will allow full access.
