How Can We Help?
Global Reporter RoleGlobal Reporter Role
What
We are working on introducing new roles for the Report module. The idea is that these roles only will have access to the Reporting tab and not the Editor or Master data tab.
How
- With 5.18.0 we have introduced global reporter roles for all content types. These new roles will grant access to the Report module, and it will be possible to report on the selected content types, e.g. Global reporter of Activities.
- This means that it is now possible to open the Report module up for more users without giving them access to editorial rights.
- If the Global reporter roles are the only roles that a user have, then the user can only see the Reporting tab, and use the Report module without being able to see the rest of Pure, except for the below mentioned:
- The Global reporter on UPM (Projects, Award and Applications) will have access to the Editor workspace, though only in Read-only mode.
- Combine these roles to give access to the Report module for more users scenarios.
Overview in table format:
Role | Access to workspaces | Access to new reporting module | Reporting on confidential content | Reporting on Sensitive data |
---|---|---|---|---|
Administrator | All | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Administrator of specific content | Editor, Master data, Reporting | Yes | Yes | No |
Global reporter of Projects, Awards, Applications | Editor (Read-only), Reporting | Yes | Yes* | No |
Global reporter on other content | Reporting | Yes | Yes* | No |
*) Vendor user setting. This requires that Elsevier enables this by demand. See release notes on this
Note: The definition of sensitive data is discussed here: PURESUPPORT-65921
Keep in mind that this is part of the ongoing development of the Report module and we are planning for more changes around the roles to enable even more fine-tuned access and usage of the Report module.
