How to assign unit permissions to individuals

1 min read

You can add or edit permissions by editing a unit (formerly organizational unit). You must be a superuser or an Assessment Manager in a unit to perform this action.

  1. Navigate to the Settings page and click the Organizational Units link.

  1. To add an individual to an unit, click the edit button (which looks like a pencil) next to the unit name in the table.

  1. From here, you can edit the name, code and parent of a unit. To add a person to the unit, click the Permissions link.

  1. Click the + sign to add a new permission. Start typing in the search box to find the person, then choose the desired role from the drop-down list. You can add as many permissions as needed, then click Save. (Note that each individual person may be assigned more than one role in a unit.)

  1. To remove a permission from the unit, click the trash can icon next to the permission you want to remove, then click Save.

  1. You can upload multiple permissions using a CSV file. On the Organizational Units section of the Settings page, next to the upload CSV button is a button that lets you upload permissions.
