Manage Admin Users

A User is someone that is able to login to the ResultsVault and/or SportzVault Administration web site to carry out certain administrative tasks.

A User Account can have one or more User Roles assigned to it, that gives the ability to carry out different tasks, and/or access different parts of the administration site. Any number of User Accounts can be created within an Organisation. For example, a Club may wish to set up a different User to enter Results for each of its teams' different Users to help maintain the website content.

Create or Edit User

The User Maintenance screen lists all Users currently created within the organisation.
To Edit a User, click the Edit link next to the User's name, or to Add a New User, click .

The Edit User screen will display.

Login ID *	This is the ID used to log in to the system. A Login ID is : recommended to contain at least 4 alphanumeric characters. recommended to contain at least one numeric character (but it shouldn't contain only numbers). must be unique to the system, so you cannot create an ID that is already in use by someone else. Examples of suitable IDs: mylogin, mylogin1, my1login, 1mylogin. Examples of unsuitable IDs: myl, 1234, 123456. When logging in to the system, the ID is not case-sensitive (however the Password is case-sensitive).

For example: myaddress@example.com;anotheraddresss@example.com When creating a new User, optionally check the Send User welcome email checkbox that will email a welcome message to the new User containing the ID and Password, and in most cases, a PDF Getting started guide.
Mobile Phone Number	Mobile phone number of User.

Roles of Admin Users

SYSTEM ADMIN	High level system administration.
SITE MANAGER	Higher level website and competition related maintenance that is typically related to 'setup' or 'configuration' tasks, such as: Grade setup Online Form & Registration Product configuration Registration Types & Registration Period setup Access to Season & Competition settings Website tasks Person Manager capabilities
CONTENT MANAGER	Website content related maintenance (e.g. create and maintain Html content, home page, News, Events, Slideshow Galleries).
User MANAGER	Create and maintain other Users. Users who have this role can effectively grant themselves any other role.
EMAIL SENDER	Access to send email messages Exception: In Cricket, SITE MANAGER can also send Fantasy League messages.
SMS SENDER	Sending of SMS messages. Ordering SMS credits.
RESULTS MANAGER	Competition Results related maintenance (e.g. clubs: results and scores update, associations: match confirmation, exception reports etc).
MATCH OFFICIAL MANAGER
PERSON MANAGER	Creation, editing, deleting of person records - e.g. Players, Contacts, Umpires and tasks related to person records.
ADMINISTER CHILD	Managing competitions between other 'child' organisations to 'administer' a child organisation without requiring a separate login to that organisation. For example, an association User with the role can 'administer' one of its participating clubs directly (from the dropdown list on the administration home page). See below for more information about administering child organisations.
FINANCIAL MANAGER	Tasks relating to financial information - e.g payments/subscriptions made by players or other people in the system. Additional 'special' roles that are not available in all cases.

1. Each role is independent of each other - a "Super User" (ie a User able to do anything) should be a member of all the above roles. It is highly recommended that each
  organisation has at least two such Users, so that if one User locks their access to the system, the other "super User" can reset the account.
2. If a User attempts to access a screen without being a member of the appropriate Role, they will be redirected to a 'No Access' screen.
3. Setting a User to be the 'Principal User' automatically assigns all User roles to the User.

Grade Access for Admin Users

By default, a User has access to all grades that are relevant to their organisation. This can be restricted as follows:

Click the Select Grades radio button
Select one or more grades from the Available Grades list box
Click the Add button

A User who has restricted grades assigned will only see their 'allowed' grades in any grade dropdown list (e.g. within the selector bar on most pages - in which case an asterisk * will appear next to the grade dropdown list to indicate this).

Restricted Grades are assigned typically by:

A Club restricting a User to a single Grade so that he/she can only enter results for that Grade (e.g. 'team managers').
An Association restricting a User to a single Grade so that he/she can only review/lock results for that Grade.

If new grades are added to the Organisation (e.g. in a new season), any Users that have the Select Grades radio button selected will not automatically have access to the new grade, and each affected User Account will need to be edited to add the Grade (if applicable). Users that have the radio button selected automatically have access to all Grades, including new ones that are added from time to time.

Person Role Access

By default, a User has access to all person records within their Organisation irrespective of the Person Roles (e.g. PLAYER, CONTACT) that the person record has. This can be restricted as follows:

Click the Select Person Roles radio button.
Select one or more Person Roles from the Available Person Roles list.
Click the Add button.

It is possible to select ALL roles of a particular type, or specific sub-roles. For example, ALL PLAYER ROLES will allow sub roles such as PLAYER:SENIOR, PLAYER:JUNIOR.
If both ALL PLAYER ROLES and (e.g.) PLAYER:SENIOR is selected, then ALL PLAYER ROLES will take precedence.
NO ROLES should be selected where the User requires access to records with NO ROLES (e.g. past players).

A User who has restricted Person Roles assigned will not be able to access any person record for editing or viewing which does not hold at least one of their allowed roles. These records would also have personal information obscured in any person list for that User.

Examples:

User's 'allowed' Person Roles	Person has these roles	Does User have access to the person record?
ALL PLAYER ROLES	PLAYER:SENIOR, COACH:SENIOR	YES
PLAYER:SENIOR	PLAYER:SENIOR, COACH:SENIOR	YES
PLAYER:JUNIOR	PLAYER:SENIOR, COACH:SENIOR	NO
ALL PLAYER ROLES	(No roles)	NO
ALL PLAYER ROLES,NO ROLES	(No roles)	YES

Grade and Person Role takes precedence over User Roles. A User will still require the applicable User role (e.g. RESULTS MANAGER or PERSON MANAGER) in order to access various Admin Pages.

More information about administering child organisations

When a User administers a Child Organisation:

User Roles EMAIL_SENDER, SMS_ SENDER, FINANCIAL_MANAGER, CONTENT_ MANAGER are rendered inactive. For example, the User will not be able to send an email while administering the child organisation.
Any grade restrictions that User has remain active.
Grades are further restricted to the grades managed by the User's Organisation.
For example, Club C belongs to Association A (that has Grades G1 and G2) and Association B (that has Grades G3 and G4). Club A participates in Grades G1, G2, G3 and G4. A User from Association A administering Club C will only have access to Grades G1 and G2.
A User with 'unrestricted' Person Role access can only access PLAYER type roles in the child organisation.
A User with restrictions on Person Role access can only access the PLAYER type roles in the Child Organisation that are in their 'allowed' list (and no other types of roles).

When the User administers their own Organisation, all their normal access is restored.

The above restrictions do not apply for any User that has the special SYSTEM ADMIN User role.
