Full Access – Enables to Role to create, edit or delete information in the module.
Action – Enables the Role to view the data and perform a task or minor changes to the module.
Read Only – Enables the Role to view the data in the module.

Each Permission Level has toggle switches that can be set to an ON or OFF state.

If all toggle switches are Off the access right is deactivated for the Role.

Operator Roles are for the users that manage and maintain ARCO Platform. The role grants access to user management, site management and system configurations.

Custom 1 – Enables limited access to specific rooms or areas.
Custom 2 – Enables limited access to specific rooms or areas.

Role Navigation

ARCO enables you to create Roles that control how and what users can access on your system.

The proper configuration of role access rights should be done in the context of your overall organisational security policy. As part of this policy, your organisation should determine which roles need to be defined, the areas to which each role is allowed access and the type of access allowed.
