Feature Management
Administrators
can provide or deny access to features by turning on or off
the boxes/tabs. Features such as Viewpoint, Link Center,
Your Courses and all top menu tabs can be made available or
denied access in this manner.
Turn ON implies that these features can be used and turn OFF
implies denial of access. In the case of Turn OFF, though
the tabs are visible at the top menu, clicking on them will
only display a message that the feature is currently
unavailable.
The differences in stakeholder tab rights (user management)
and turn on/off tab right (feature management) is that if
admin restricts the access rights of tabs from the user
management section, then the tab/feature disappears from the
top menu. However, if the feature is turned off from using
feature management, then the tab/feature still appears in
the top menu; but, access is denied.
The features can be turned On/Off at three levels:
|
 |
At organization
level: If administrator turns off any of the
features from this level, then this is applicable to
all the users of the system regardless of the
stakeholder type (no stakeholder can access it). |
|
|
At Stakeholder level:
If administrator turns off any of the features from
this level, then this is applicable to all the users
categorized as a particular group of stakeholder
(like, students should not be able to view the
instructor-related tabs). |
|
|
At user level: If
administrator turns off any of the feature from this level,
then this is applicable to that particular user only.
