Roles and permissions¶
What each User role and permission allows, and who sets it. Most are set per Account, so a User can be an admin on one Account and Restricted on another.
User types¶
| Type | Set by | Can |
|---|---|---|
| Admin | An Account admin ticks Admin on the User Management tab | Everything a User can, plus: open Account Settings and User Management, see all data even when Access Control is on, always download Parts, and edit billing details and add credit |
| User | Default for an invited User | Open every page except Account Settings and User Management, including the Setup & CAD pages, the Queues page and the billing pages. What data they see can be limited by Access Control |
| Restricted (read-only) | An Account admin ticks Restricted, or Invite as read-only when inviting | View the Account's data. Can't open Queues, Template Cases, Maps, Kinematic Setups, Assemblies or Parts, the billing pages, the Uploads button or the CFD setup options |
A User can't be both an admin and Restricted.
Review permissions¶
Set per User on the User Management tab. Each level includes the one above it. They apply to reports, and to annotations and Results comments when reviewing is on for them.
| Level | Set by | Allows |
|---|---|---|
| Read | Everyone has it | Read approved content only |
| Draft | Tick Draft | Create and edit drafts |
| Approve | Tick Approve (needs Draft) | Approve drafts |
Access Control¶
When an admin turns on Access Control, each User who isn't an admin sees only what they've been granted, area by area:
| Grant | Gives access to |
|---|---|
| Full Access | Everything in the area, including items created later |
| A Programme | Everything in that Programme, including items created in it later |
| Individual items | Only those items |
| (Automatic) | Anything the User creates |
With Access Control off, every User can see all the Account's data.
Other permissions¶
| Permission | Set by | Allows |
|---|---|---|
| Part File Download | An Account admin, on the User Management tab. Only when Part Download Control is enabled for the Account | Download Parts, download files from the File Exchange Area, and use Pose Athlete. Without Part Download Control, everyone can do these. Admins always can |
| Delete Programmes and Projects | Bramble, on request to support@bramblecfd.com | Shows the delete buttons for Programmes and Projects. Being an admin doesn't give this. Demo Programmes can always be deleted |
| Rerun pre-checks | Bramble, on request | Shows the Rerun Prechecks button. See configure pre-checks |
| Meancalc usage | Bramble, on request | Shows Meancalc Usage in the user menu |
Permissions set by Bramble apply to the User on every Account they belong to.
