/EmpowerID restricts access to the IT Shop and the resources and the visibility of resources in it through the use of Management Roles. To access the IT Shop and request resources, users must be assigned to the appropriate roles. Management Roles are prefixed by their function in EmpowerID and include the following:

  • UI — Management Roles prefixed with UI grant users access to specific UI elements in the EmpowerID Web interface. An example of this type of role for the IT Shop is UI-IT-Shop-Full-Access. This role grants full access to the user interfaces and workflows for requesting access to resources as well as for managing resources.

  • VIS — Management Roles prefixed with VIS grant users the ability to see specific object types in EmpowerID. For users to see resources of a specific type in the IT Shop they need to have a VIS role for that resource type. An example of this type of role for the IT Shop is VIS-Computer-MyLocations. This role grants access to see computers that belong to same location as the person with the role.

  • ACT — Management Roles prefixed with ACT grant users the ability to manage specific objects in EmpowerID. An  example of this type of role for resource management in EmpowerID is ACT-Computer-Shared-Credential-Assigner-MyLocations. This role grants users with the role the ability to assign and unassign shared credentials to computers in the person's locations.
