Roles
A role is a set of permissions for actions available within RSLog (e.g. creating a project, generating a borehole log, etc). A Role is assigned to one or several users. Typically, your company RSLog Administrator (i.e. the admin user) is the person who oversees user management.

RSLog Basic Roles
By default, your RSLog account comes with the following Roles:
- Admin Role: has the highest level of permissions. This is the only Role that can add or delete users to your RSLog company account.
- Engineer Role: has all the permissions of ‘Admin’ role, except user management permissions (i.e. cannot access the Roles and User Management pages).
- View Only Role: can see all pages that Engineer Role can, but is unable to edit or delete any records.
The Admin role and View Only role are locked and cannot be altered. However, you can edit permissions of Engineer role and add new roles if necessary.
Adding a Role
To add a Role:
- Click + New button from the toolbar on top of the table.
- Enter the Role Name.
- Select / unselect checkboxes to set the permissions as you wish.
- Click Save. This role should now appear on the list of roles in the table.
Selecting the ‘Automatically Assign This Role to New Users’ checkbox, makes that role the default role for any new user added to your RSLog account.
Editing a Role
To edit a Role, click on Edit button on that row. A page will appear with the permissions of the selected Role. Make necessary changes and click Save.
