Roles

A major element of the security provided by TLP is the use of roles. A role is a group of users that have a common level of functionality and data access requirements, for example operations staff as against accounting staff.

Roles are used for security purposes as follows;

Roles are assigned against data schemas to define the data that can be accessed and how it can be accessed.

Roles are assigned against Bookmarked searches to define the views the role can use to access data they have permission to access.

TLP is provided with a number of standard roles which are defined in this section.

Standard Roles

SYSADMIN

This is the highest level of system access that is available. It is only applied to TLP Support Staff or  Agents Support Staff. This allows the administration of schemas and views, the administration of sequences and the Import and Export of data for administration purposes in addition to the functionality provided to SITEADMIN users.
