How to give a user a role in an organization

Overview

This flow describes how to link a user to an organization with a role, and how to change or remove that role later. The role decides what the user can do in that organization and in everything below it.

Pre-requisites

  • The user has an account in Care.
  • The user is not already linked to this organization, to a parent organization, or to a child organization. Care allows one link for each user in one branch of the tree.
  • You hold every permission that the role holds. Care refuses a role that is above your own access at that boundary.
  • You have the permissions listed below.

Permissions

Go to the organization, then select the Users tab. Care shows one card for each user, with the role of that user.

4. Change the role of a user

Select the user card, then select Edit User Role. Care shows the current role. Select a new role in Select New Role, then select Update Role. Care shows the message "User role updated successfully".

You must select a role that is different from the current role.

5. Remove the user

Expected Outcome

  • The user is in the users list of the organization, with the role that you selected.
  • The user can do the actions of that role in the organization and in every organization below it.
  • After you remove the user, the access from that role ends.
