In any company, a project is worked upon by teams across departments. It becomes imperative for large companies or complex projects that information is shared, made available on a “need to know basis”.
When it comes to project management, it becomes crucial that project leaders invite the right people at the right time.
The most important rule for controlling access to users is to provide the least amount of access privileges required for users to perform their daily tasks. Many tasks do not require administrator privileges.
However, without the User Role Management, the users log on to their Orangescrum Account as an Owner, Admin, User or Client with per-defined access.
Most users do not require such high levels of access in a project. Often users are unaware that they are logged on as an Admin or user, the user can unintentionally or intentionally edit tasks, change due dates or close a task. These changes may affect the project deadlines and project schedules.
With our User Role Management feature, you can define clear roles and responsibilities for the smooth functioning of your teams as well as the projects. This also forms the basis for communication during the project and ensures how everyone can contribute to a project.
Navigate to the Left menu panel and click on User. Navigate to the top right-corner and click on ‘User Role Management.’

Before we move ahead, let’s have a discussion over a few terms.
Whether it is a big enterprise or a small medium business house, each one has many departments like Managing Board, Executives, Finance, HR, Team Leads, Support, Marketing etc. working in their company. And moreover, they need special privacy about their tasks, invoices or projects. Orangescrum perfectly understand this, here is how you can create different departments using Orangescrum User Role Management add-on:
Under departments, there must be different employees working with their roles as per seniority and experience. He may be a senior, junior, executive officer or may be a trainee as well. You must define their roles as per their designation in the company, so that they can clearly understand their responsibility and you can maintain the privacy from top to lower level.

To manage the control of a user role’s accessibility in Orangescrum, you need to define the control in the User Role.
At any time, you can edit/remove any action, modules or a user for a user role.
The owner of the Orangescrum account can only see the User Role Setting. Once the owner defines the role & access, the user can access his/her Orangescrum account to perform the action within Orangescrum accordingly.
This is an interesting feature of the User Role Management add-on. Sometimes a user in a project needs to be an admin in his Department but in other projects he just needs the access as a normal user.
Do let us know what access levels and control you would like to deploy while using Orangescrum in your comments below. We would love to hear from you.
