Roles

Intelligent Capture utilizes role-based permissions. Each role is assigned a specific set of permissions that allows users to perform actions. When a new user is added, one or more roles must be assigned to that user. Once a role is assigned to a user, that user has all of the permissions that are available for that role. See Permissions for a list of available permissions.

There are three default roles in Intelligent Capture:

  • Administrators have complete access to Intelligent Capture. Administrators can capture documents, manage the data dictionary, manage users and roles, manage workflows, and manage work items.
  • Power Users can perform all actions within the system except for managing users. Power Users can capture documents, manage the data dictionary, manage roles, manage workflows, and manage work items.
  • Basic Users can only capture documents. Basic Users cannot view the Work Items page or access Settings on the Navigation menu.

Any user that is assigned to a role with the Manage Roles permission can add, edit, and delete roles.

Duplicate a role

You may have a role that is already configured with permissions that are very similar to those that you want a new role to have. Instead of configuring a new role from scratch, you can save time by duplicating the existing role and making modifications to the role properties.

  1. Click the three dots next to the role you want to duplicate, then select Duplicate from the drop-down menu.

  2. Update the Name for the new role.
  3. Add or remove any necessary permissions and users, then click Save.
