Administration FAQ's
How do I Add Users? Click the manage users tab. There is a
button called "add user", click this.
I am
adding a user, what is a profile? There are two types
of users to add. One is an administrator, the other is a user. The
difference being an administrator gets to add users, manage groups
and manage meeting types. A user only gets to view and/or manage
meetings.
What are meeting types
for? Meeting types allow you to categorise your meetings. You
may have different types of meetings within your organization. You can
create different meeting types for this. The administrator can also
assign security permissions for users based on meeting
types.
What are calendar
channels? Within a group or business you may want to share
events. Not all events should be accessed by all users though. The
filtering of this event information is done by using calendar
channels. The administrator can create and manage
chanels. Users can only see events from the chanels the administrator
has allowed. Users can only post to channels the administrator has
allowed.
eg. The administrator creates a managers channel. Managers
that have access to this channel can now post to and read all events
within the managers channel. Other users will not see the events within
this channel.
Each user can also post a personal event which is for
their eyes only.
What are groups for? Groups are used
to easily categorise a number of users. Assigning security permissions for meeting types is done via
groups, thus affecting all users within the
group.
What do the different permissions for
meeting types mean? There are three types of permission you
can set for a meeting type.
- Read - Users with this permission can view and
print minutes only
- Manage Created - Users with this permission can manage any
meeting
they created.
- Administer All - Users with this permission can view, edit or delete
any
meeting within the meeting type regardless.
Setting these permissions for groups, affects all the users within the
group.
