Managing Staff Permissions in EdMod (Integrated Rostering and Standalone)

The permissions feature is available to all admin users, allowing them to manage which users can add, edit, and view information in a student's platform.

NOTE: This feature does not cover which teachers can view which students. That is all controlled by the roster through whichever integration you are using. 

1. Click on your initials in the top right-hand corner

2. Click on "Settings" 

3. Click on the permissions tab to identify user roles and set permissions for all groups.

User Roles Overview: You can create custom user roles to grant specific editing rights to certain users. 

Example: A special Ed teacher can have permission to edit the Learning Biography, while a Gen Ed teacher only has viewing rights. 

4. To add a teacher, search their name using the search bar, then click the box next to their name and select “set role” to choose which group they belong in
5. To add a new User Role, click on "+Add a new User Role"  in the "Filter by..." column. 

Permissions: At the top of permissions, you will notice the various user roles that have already been created. This is where you can edit, delete, or create a new group ("+" button). 

In each category (General, Learning Biography, etc.) you can select individual feature boxes to check, or you select "View" or "Edit" and all of the boxes will be checked in that category. 

In each category, you can select whether you want to give "View" or "Edit" access to the corresponding group. Categories with a ">" have a dropdown with subcategories for you to assign the appropriate access. 

For any edits that are made, please be sure to click "Save."
