Default Administrative Roles

The Administration Console is shipped with an out-of-the-box administrator called the Master Administrator who can perform high-level configurations. Other than this, assign users to administrative roles to administer the AuthMinder system or to access your business data. An administrative role typically comprises a set of permissions that are based on a job function profile and the scope in which these permissions are applicable. The users with administrative permissions are referred to as administrative user.

Note: See "Summary of Administrative Permissions" for a comprehensive list of permissions available to each administrative role.

The Administration Console supports the following predefined administrative roles:

• Master Administrator
• Global Administrator
• Organization Administrator
• User Administrator

In addition, you can also create Custom Roles.

Note: The administrators are also considered as users of the system.

The following figure depicts these administrative roles and the relationships between the permissions available to these roles. The sections following the figure discuss the supported administrator levels in detail.

Note: The hierarchical distribution of permissions does not allow the administrators to access features beyond their fixed boundaries. Each level has a predefined permission or role.
