This page will walk you through BSN.Cloud permissions system using the scenario of a hypothetical chain of shops. You will learn how to create and edit Custom Roles for Custom Roles let you maintain a digital-signage system of 25 shops spread out over a large geographical area. Your company has 25 shops in multiple states, and the central office has many more employees. Though BSN.Cloud’s System Roles have worked well, they are no longer able to serve a large group of users with diverse roles and responsibilitieswith minutely tailored user roles and responsibilities across many locations.

Creating Custom Roles

Since there are nearly 70 many individual permissions, it is often easiest to base a Custom Role on one of the preexisting System Roles:

  1. In BrightAuthor:connected, go the Admin tab and select Role (you must be signed in to BSN.cloud).

  2. Go to the gear icon at the top right of the page and select Add Role.

  3. Enter a name and (optional) description for the Custom Rolerole.

  4. Copy the permissions from an existing role or if you do not do this, all permissions will be set to off.

  5. Select Add Role. You can select the check boxes to add or remove additional permissions.

The user in charge of accounts payable needs to keep track of the invoices that are generated by BSN.Cloud. Since they are not otherwise involved in the digital signage network, create a Custom Role without copying permissions from a System Role, so all permissions are set to off. When the role has been created, turn on the necessary permissions in the DeviceSubscription category.

You have now expanded the permissions of your Network Manager without having to enable full control of an operations category.
