Super Admin Overview

Introduction

Ondexx uses the Super Administrator global right to denote a user who has complete access to an instance, including all available rights and permissions in all Sites.

Global rights differ from Site rights in that they are assigned directly to a user’s account.

Super Admin Right Details

Super Administrators gain a variety of instance-wide rights and permissions. These include:

  • Automatic access to all available sites.
    • Unrestricted access to all administrative menus, files, and pages
  • Access to all Configuration menus
    • Edit instance settings
    • Edit instance content elements
    • Edit custom attributes
    • Manage instance Single Sign-On configuration
    • Edit instance email templates
    • Create special interstitial announcements
  • Access to the User Management Console
    • View all users within entire instance
    • Edit user profiles, including Email Address and Employee IDs
    • Deactivate user accounts in bulk

The Super Administrator right also supersedes all other rights and permissions. Any assigned rights or permissions at the site level will not affect a Super Admin.

Assigning the Super Admin Global Right

The Super Administrator right can only be assigned by other Super Administrators.

  1. Navigate to the profile of the user you wish to change. This can be done in a site-based user menu (i.e. Active Users…), or the User Management Console.
  2. Scroll to the section marked System-Wide Rights. Here you can modify a user’s instance-level rights.
  3. Under System Administration, check the box labeled Super-Administrator.
  4. At the bottom or top of the page, click Update Profile.
  5. The selected user now has the Super Admin global right.
