Permissions Management
Keep your content in the right hands without overloading employees with unnecessary information
Don’t overload your employees with information they don’t need. Using permissions management, you provide your employees access to view and edit appropriate processes depending on their roles.
It’s the Goldilocks Complex — give your employees the “just right” amount of access. And the permissions are simple to manage and don’t take long to set up.
Your team is made up of different roles and partners outside of the company. With permissions management, provide them access to the content they need.
Control access
Manage authoring permissions
Differentiate roles
Simplify the sign-on process
Too much information can be overwhelming and distracting for employees. Cut down the clutter by controlling access to your content with flexible viewing permissions. Employees won’t see information that doesn’t matter to them.
For example you can give a user access to an entire manual, or just a few articles in that manual.
Get everyone involved with flexible authoring permissions. Differentiate between authors and administrators. This allows employees with lower access levels to edit articles while still authorizing admins access to a wider range of materials.
You can allow some users to have full publishing rights, allow others to contribute content but not publish, or even give them review-only permissions.
Setting up permissions for who gets access to which articles can take hours. Simplify the process by determining who gets to see which pages according to their role in the company.
You can even set up groups that differentiate between employees, partners, customers, and consultants.
No more forgetting passwords. By using single sign-on, employees are able to log into ScreenSteps through your already existing user management system (i.e. Azure Active Directory, GSuite, Salesforce, Okta, OneLogin, or any other applications that support SAML).
