Administrator Logon Permissions – Doubleknot

To provide fine-grained control over access to different features, Doubleknot supports more than 30 different kinds of user permissions. Doubleknot also supports role-based permissions so you can create "roles" that contain the right set of permissions for a job function. When you assign administrators to a role, they automatically receive all the permissions associated with the role.

Below is a list of all Doubleknot permissions. The permissions that are available for your organization depend on what Doubleknot features you’re using. Permissions followed by an asterisk (*) have additional levels of access control and are discussed below the list.
