Permissions
On this page:
iSymphony allows for granular control over every profile and the actions that they can perform. All permissions are Profile->Object based where an "Object" is the profile's local extensions, a remote extension, the parking lot, a queue, or a conference room. For example you can specify what actions profile "John" can perform on queue "Main Queue". There are three different tiers of permissions. Default, Group, and Override and can be configured in the Server, Permission Group, and Profile configuration pages respectively.
Default
Default permissions are permissions that are used system wide if no other permissions have been specified. These will usually specify the permissions that the majority of the users will be given. These permissions can be accessed in the Server Configuration page.
Groups
Permission groups are used to create a set of permissions that will be used by a group of users if they will be sharing the same permissions. In the permission configuration screen for a group you can specify if you wish to apply these permissions for all objects by selecting the "Apply permissions to all" check box or you can specify unique permissions for specified objects by checking them off in the object list. Group permissions will override default permissions. These permissions can be accessed via the Permission Group Configuration page.
Overrides
Overrides allow you to specify unique permissions for a given profile if you do not wish to use the default permissions, the profile doesn't fit in a permission group, or you wish to have a group member's permissions slightly modified from what the group specifies. Configuration of permission overrides are similar to group permissions with the exception that you have to select "Activate" in the permission configuration to utilize them. Overrides will override both default and group permissions. You can access the Permission Overrides from the Profile Configuration page.
