In this section we want to introduce Admin Roles to provide our different backend users with role-based permissions.
We have three different user roles:
Super admin users,
employees and
representatives of partnering shipping companies.
Define admin roles
cmsbs-conf/conf.d/admin_role.attributes
:
admin_role.values[] = "" admin_role.values[] = "employee" admin_role.values[] = "shipping_company"
Employees
Employees should be able to:
View, edit and create Entries (shipping companies, employees and customers),
view, edit and create Lists (aka Channels),
view existing Segments (aka VChannels) and
send Newsletters.
cmsbs-conf/adminRoles/role_employee.properties
:
gui.areas = ShowUser EditUser ListUsers CreateUser ListChannels EditChannels ListVChannels NewsletterArchive SendNewsletter NewsletterQueue attr.entrytype.values = shipping_company employee customer area.CreateUser.employee = false area.EditChannels.EditTags = false area.SendNewsletter.EditTags = false
