In the access Management page you can set up a group or function for viewing, editing and managing. on the right side the permissions are explained.

How to limited management of content

If you have management rights set to specific users you can grant persons limited access to specific content. When you do he will only be able to manage the content you allow him to manage. Some content options have this function for example activities. If you see the option it means the content can be managed specially. Remember that in order to set a limited manager the user needs to be already set as a manager to that module. Otherwise he can’t be set as a manager.

For example: If a user has management rights to the activities module but you only want him to manage one specific activity, write the name of the user in the “Select manager” input and the only activity the user can see is that are assigned to him.

In the articles for the content we will briefly go over the limited management option if it’s available.

 

How to check, which permissions a Manager has 

Open the CRM > Contacts page (See this article for information on the contact page) from the admin menu. Find the user you want to manage management rights of and select the Record option from the Actions button.

Once you are in the Records of the user check the Permissions tab. There is no possibility anymore to change it here, but you can see the permissions of the users for the modules
