12.4.3 Role management – BUSINESS Premium and ENTERPRISE Version
An IZYTRONIQ floating license model means defining a maximum number of users that are permitted to access the same database
simultaneously. Hence, the IZYTRONIQ floating license model differs from the workstation-based license model, in which the workstation
license is coupled with the hardware. In the concurrent user license model, the software itself can be installed on an infinite number of
computers. A central server manages the licenses, which are also called floating licenses or network licenses. The server registers the
number of currently issued licenses and grants to each eligible user the right to access the database in principle. But once all licenses
have been issued, an additional, competing user must wait until another user ends a session, freeing up a license to be used else-
where.
In the role management menu, permissions can be assigned to users by enabling a check box. Permissions can be revoked by dis-
abling the check box again. Roles are assigned to a user on the basis of which he is granted his permissions. Additional restrictions can
be made stipulating that these permissions shall only apply to certain customers. To this end, a read and/or write permission can be
assigned to various customers in the user management menu under tab Permissions, see “User management – BUSINESS Premium
Version and ENTERPRISE Version”. If the Admin enables the corresponding check box there, the permissions defined in the roles only
apply to those customers who are added in the list.
Several roles can be assigned to users. These are shown in column ROLES. Column ACTIVE shows the person who owns the role cur-
rently selected in the upper window (in stored condition).
The following roles are predefined by default:
• administrators,
• inspectors,
• clerks.
Additional roles can be defined.
By ticking the permissions in the different categories, it is possible to assign a role to each of these categories.
The bottom section shows the list of registered users which has been prepared in the User management menu.
