Salesmate helps you to define organization-wide hierarchy using Roles management. Users at a higher hierarchy can always access all the records of the users at a lower hierarchy. For example, a Sales manager can access all records Sales Reps.
Assigning Roles and Profiles
Since Roles of users evolve within the organization. It may require that you may need to update the Roles and Profile Permissions of users. Here are steps to update Roles and Profile Permissions :
- Go to Setup > Users & Security > Users
- Hover over the user's name and click on "View"
- Click on Edit, from the top right of the screen to update the settings.
- Go to Profiles and Roles Field to update the information
- Hit Update to save the changes.
Data Sharing
- By default, access rights to all records are set as private so that the record owner and his/her manager can oversee the data. However, using the Data Sharing Rules, you can extend the access rights to users belonging to other roles and profiles.
- Once the data sharing rules are configured, users associated with other roles and profiles can gain additional access to the records that belong to other users.
Note : You can provide the following types of access levels to a user in Salesmate:
- Private : Only the record owner and his/her superior can view the record.
- Public Read Only : Users can view others' records but cannot modify and delete the records.
- Public Read/Write : Other users can view, modify and delete the records.
Quick Note
Using the Share Data with Peers option you can enable sharing of data among users of the same role. For example, two marketing managers can see each other's records when "Share data with peers" is selected.
