Below is a list of all the permissions that are available to you when creating user roles. The permissions are listed in alphabetical order, as they appear in the System Management module. The initials in the middle column indicate the module in which the action can be carried out. Help on module initials...
Some permissions allow changes to all studies/sites in a database and are not restricted to the study/site combination specified in a user’s user role. For example, a user may have a user role that only allows them to access a single site/study but if they have the 'Export Study' permission, which is database-wide, they will still be able to export data for other sites and studies within the same database. The Scope column in the table below shows which permissions affect the whole database.
The Security Functions standard report gives details about which functions have been performed.
