Managing Profiles

Managing Profiles

Profile helps you define permission to access data for the users who belong to your Bigin account. The data that the users require will be different based on the role they are entitled to. 
 
This further boosts security as profiles determine the minimum amount of data that an user can access to perform the appropriate job. 
                          
 
For example, the responsibility of a manager is vast. He/she has to manage the entire organization and thus should own the power to perform the managerial tasks such as adding an user, creating workflows, import and export data, etc. whereas the responsibility of a sales rep centres around communicating with the customer, logging those calls, adding an event with a client, etc. and thus wouldn't need access to sophisticated features and profiles help in granting access to the required data. 

                              
Default Profiles
By default, there are two profiles available. They can be customized but cannot be deleted.
  • Administrator - This profile grants access to all the features in  your Bigin account.
  • Standard - This profile grants limited access to features in Bigin.
Custom Profiles
You can create custom profiles, set permissions of your choice and add users to the appropriate profile. While creating a profile you can clone from Administrator or Standard profile settings. 

Profile Permissions

Profile permissions allows or restricts access to the features in Bigin. The permissions are classified into:
Pipeline Permissions
You can alter view, create, edit and delete permission for Pipelines module. You can also enable/disable access for specific Team Pipelines. 

Basic Permissions
Basic permissions deals with the following modules:
  • Contacts 
  • Accounts
  • Pipelines 
  • Notes
  • Files
  • Activities
  • Dashboards
You can alter the View, Create, Edit, Delete permissions for the  above modules. 

Note
For dashboards, View and Manage permissions are  only available. 
Scenario: Sales Agents in Zylker Insurance need to view the list of closed Pipeline Records along with the revenue details in the  dashboard. Their role doesn't need them to manage the dashboard  settings. Hence manage permission can be disabled for the Sales Agent's profile.
