System User Roles in MangoApps

MangoApps allows for configuring out of the box system roles with unique permission settings to streamline user administration and management. These user roles apply differently at the domain level and module level. The different user roles are:

  • Domain Administrators or Network Administrators

  • Organization Administrators

  • Network Users

  • Intranet Administrators or Company Administrators

  • Project, and Group Administrators or Team Administrators

  • Department Administrator s

  • Project, Group, and Department Members

  • Guest Users

For more details on permissions for administrator roles click here.

A user’s role determines the level of access and capabilities they have either at a network level or a module level. The MangoApps user interface dynamically configures itself based on the permissions associated with the logged in user.

Admins can extend this to create custom admin roles to provide fine-grain control over access & capabilities for network administration via the MangoApps admin portal. More on this in the Custom Admin Roles section ahead.
