In BriefBuilder, you can assign user roles on two levels:
Environment level: What is a user allowed to do/see within the client environment?
Project level: What is a user allowed to do/see within a particular project model?
Environment roles
On an environment level, there are three roles to choose from:
Project participant
This is default role when you add a new user. This role is typically assigned to people who should only have access to one or more specific projects. It typically concerns external parties (e.g. architect or engineers of a specific project).
| Access to one or more particular projects |
Please note: this user cannot see or edit any project until he or she has been given a specific role for that project.
Environment editor
This role is typically assigned to people working within the client organisation who work with BriefBuilder on a regular basis. They can see the projects of their colleagues and can clone/create new projects for themselves.
| Create new projects |
| Clone projects |
| View all projects in the environment (active and archived) |
Environment administrator
This role is reserved for the BriefBuilder ‘super user’ within the organisation: the one that knows most about BriefBuilder, does user management, and helps his or her colleagues in the use of BriefBuilder.
| Same as Environment editor, plus |
| Delete projects |
| Archive projects, restore archived projects |
| View and restore back-ups |
| User management |
Project roles
On a project level, there are five different roles to choose from:
Owner
This role is automatically assigned to the person who creates the project. It allows you to administer the project and to view and edit all the data in it.
| Editing the project homepage |
| Edit all settings (requirements/analysis/verification/RFC/user roles/modules) |
| Edit all data (project name/requirements/analysis/verification plan/outcomes/RFC-request/RFC-assessment) |
| Import objects/trees from other projects (active and archived) |
| Versioning and publishing |
| Add modules |
| Create comments |
| View audit/history |

Viewer published versions
With this role you can only see the published versions. No comment possibilities. No insights in project history.

Please note: in formal tender procedures, the ‘viewer published versions’ is the most appropriate one for parties participating in the tender. They only get to see the ‘officially’ published data.
