| ====== How to Configure a Custom Level ====== | ====== How to Configure a Custom Level ====== | ||
| - | ===== Before versions before 2.3 ===== | + | The custom level feature allows you to give specified privileges to administrators in specific menus. |
| - | Before the release of BioStar 2.3, there were only 4 operator levels for users. There functions were limited to their roles as shown below: \\ | + | |
| - | - Administrator : full privileges over all operations | + | ===== BioStar version 2.6 and above ===== |
| - | - User Operator : only full privileges to edit users | + | From BioStar 2.6.3, the Admin Item Setting is changed so that a custom level can be assigned for a specific User Group, Device Group, Door Group, and Access Group. Also Monitoring menu is now allowing the administrator to assign "Read" rights. \\ |
| - | - Monitoring Operator : only full privileges over the monitoring page | + | |
| - | - Mobile User : only privilege to read all menus. | + | 1. Go to the **Settings** > **ACCOUNT**. \\ |
| + | {{:en:biostar2_custom_level_1.png?nolink&800|}} \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | 2. Create new Custom Level. At this point, you can configure the item settings and menu settings. \\ | ||
| + | {{:en:custom_level_-_2.6.3.png?nolink&1000|}} \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | You can also see now that the Monitoring Admin Menu Setting allows "Read" assignment.\\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Admin Item Settings** includes User Group, Device Group, Door Group, and Access Group(including Elevator Group). \\ | ||
| + | Each item can be configured for each group or for all groups. \\ | ||
| + | **Admin Menu Settings** consists of Dashboard, User, Device, Door, Elevator, Zone, Access Control, Monitoring, Time and Attendance, Setting, and Video categories. \\ | ||
| + | For each menu you can set "Edit" and "Read" privileges. \\ | ||
| + | When checking "Edit" it will automatically check "Read." \\ | ||
| + | Depending on such privilege settings, "Add Button" column value will be changed (N/A, Disabled, or Enabled)\\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | <callout type="tip" icon="true"> | ||
| + | * The expansion of Admin Item Settings to universal setting of the Custom Level will influence the Admin Menu Settings. | ||
| + | * The Account button can now be visible to all users that have administrator privilege(as opposed to the previous versions in which only the main administrator had privilege to access this feature) | ||
| + | * If you are upgrading from previous versions to BioStar 2.6.3, you need to perform migration on the Custom Level | ||
| + | * The Administrator will receive alert regarding Custom Level activities | ||
| + | </callout> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Up to BioStar 2.6.2, Admin Item Settings were only limited to Monitoring section as in the screenshot below.\\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{:en:biostar2_custom_level_2.png?nolink&1200|}} \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | Below can be an example of how you can realize features that are changed in 2.6.3 | ||
| + | |||
| + | <callout type="primary" icon="true"> | ||
| + | * Employee name: Max | ||
| + | * Employee group(User Group): IT | ||
| + | * Device used when entering from the main entrance(Device Group): BioStation L2 | ||
| + | * Working Space(Door Group): IT Main Office A1 | ||
| + | * Department(Access Group): IT Department | ||
| + | </callout> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Admin Item Settings and Admin Menu Settings can be properly configured to reflect the example above.\\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | 1. Because Max belong to IT Department, we can setup Access Group and Access Level via Access Control menu.\\ | ||
| + | {{:en:custom_level_-_1.png?nolink&800|}} \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | 2. When Creating Access Group, you will be prompted to create Access Level \\ | ||
| + | - Assigning a user will not be necessary as we will assign a user to a specific user group. \\ | ||
| + | {{:en:custome_level_-_2.png?nolink&1000|}} \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | 3. Let's go to Door menu to setup Door Group, right click on All Doors and click "Add Group" to add Door Group | ||
| + | - you can see the Door Group created below it, here it is named to IT Main Office A1. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ===== BioStar version 2.4 and above ===== | ||
| + | In BioStar version 2.4, the custom level was further expanded to allow custom levels that controls specific users, devices, doors, and access groups. \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{:en:2xtraining_custom_admin_007_.png?nolink&800|}} \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | However, be aware that the custom items only apply to its specific menu. \\ | ||
| + | This means that even if you apply a specific user in the **User** menu item and specific devices in the **Device** menu item, the custom operator will see //all// logs of devices and users in the **Monitoring** menu because the settings do not apply other menus. | ||
| + | |||
| + | <callout type="warning" icon="true"> | ||
| + | **Known Issue** \\ | ||
| + | You can only add new custom levels with the default administrator (ID 1) account in BioStar 2.4. \\ | ||
