User Roles

There are five predefined user roles:
  • SuperUser
  • Administrator
  • Project Manager
  • Analyst
  • Reporter

SuperUser

The SuperUser role is a special role that is granted all privileges across Performance Manager.

Administrator

Administrator tasks include the configuring of application-, front-end, and chart-server locations; setting up and maintaining repositories and notification settings; creating accounts; configuring locations and execution servers, and others.

Project Manager

Project Managers maintain the projects for which they are responsible. Project Managers do not have write access to the Performance Manager Administration area. Project Managers can only access the projects to which they have been assigned as Project Managers, where they have full write access to all project-related features, including creating, editing and deleting blackout periods related to their assigned projects. If a blackout period involves just one project that a project manager is not assigned to, they will not be able to make any modifications though.

Analyst

Analysts analyze the results of projects that have been assigned to them. They cannot modify project settings or schedules and have read-only privileges.

Reporter

In addition to having all the rights of Analysts, Reporters additionally have the right to edit and delete reports in Advanced mode. Advanced mode allows reporters to enter, modify, and delete SQL statements for advanced reports. For details on advanced reports, refer to the Performance Manager Help.
