Defining Permissions per Job

Now that you, as an Admin, have created your above units, units, and custom jobs, it's time to define the respective permissions per job.

For all jobs, the same permissions are available to be enabled. However, the process is a bit different for each.

In the left navigation, make sure you are in the Academy Workspace.

When in the Academy Workspace, select Academy Admin for all Academy Administration options. 

Select Organization and then Set Up Organization.

Above Units — Organizational Jobs

Two system jobs are created automatically with each Above Unit Type —

• Head of the Above Unit
• Assistant Head of the Above Unit

You cannot delete them, but you can define their permissions.

Select Set Up Organization on the left, then the Above Units tab.

Click on the Manage Permissions option, right under the job you want to edit and you will see a list of the available permissions.

Units — Organizational Jobs

Two system jobs are created automatically with each Unit  —

• Unit Manager
• Assistant Unit Manager

You cannot delete them but you can define their permissions.

Select the Units tab, then the Set Permissions subtab. You will see a list of the available permissions per job.

Custom Jobs

Once you have created your custom jobs, you can define the permissions per custom job.

When in the Academy Workspace, select Academy Admin for all Academy Administration options. 

Select Organization and then Manage Jobs.

Under the Custom tab, you have the option to inherit each job's permissions with those of its associated Unit or Above Unit.

When selecting to associate a custom job with permissions you have two options:

1) You can associate this job's permissions with Units. If you select to associate this job's permissions with the units, the users with this job will only have these permissions for the units under which they are assigned with this job. From the moment you associate a job with units, this job can only be assigned to users under a unit.

2) Respectively if you associate this job's permissions with a specific Above Unit Type, the users with this job will only have these permissions for the Above units of the specific type under which they are assigned this job. From the moment you associate a job with a specific above unit type, this job can only be assigned to users under an above unit of this type.

Please note that if you change the custom job connection from Units to an Above Unit type as an example,

• if the user having this job belongs to the above unit type, the job will be "moved" to the above unit type for which is now connected.
• if the user having this job doesn't belong to the selected above unit type, the user will lose his job.
• if the user having this job is a member of more than one above units of the selected type, the user will lose his job.

Please note that you may define the same permissions for the custom and organizational jobs. However, even in this case, the users who do not have a organizational job assigned won't receive some of the notifications that managerial jobs receive:
