Roles and permissions help admins control user access, protect data, and keep workflows organized inside ATZ CRM.
Quick Answer
Go to Admin Settings > Accounts and Users > Roles and Permissions, create or review a role, configure access levels, save the role, and assign it to users from the Users section.
Why Roles and Permissions Matter
Use roles to control who can:
- View records.
- Create records.
- Edit records.
- Delete records.
- Change ownership.
- Access files.
- Use reports.
- Manage admin settings.
- Perform bulk actions.
Open Roles and Permissions
In ATZ CRM, open Admin Settings, scroll to Accounts and Users, and select Roles and Permissions.
Create a New Role
Click New Role to create a custom role.
Enter a role name, such as Custom Role, then configure permissions.
Configure Access Levels
For each permission area, choose access levels for actions such as view, edit, delete, create, ownership changes, and file access.
The main access levels are:
Everything
The user has full access to the selected feature or action.
Owned
The user can access only records created by them, assigned to them, or owned by them depending on the permission.
None
The user has no access to that feature or action.
Choose access based on the user’s responsibilities and the level of data visibility they need.
Report and Admin Settings Access
Report Access
Control whether users can access reports and which reporting areas they can view.
Admin Settings Access
Control whether a role can modify administrative settings.
Configure Bulk Actions
Bulk action permissions control what large-scale operations the role can perform.
Examples include:
- Export data access.
- Bulk delete permission.
- Bulk update access.
After configuring role permissions, click Save.
Assign Roles to Users
Open Users under Accounts and Users.
Select a user and assign the correct role.
Custom roles appear alongside ATZ CRM default roles such as Manager, Consultant, and Recruiter. Default roles cannot be edited or deleted, but their permissions are visible for reference.
Use Cases
Recruiter Access
Give recruiters access to the candidate and job records they need without exposing unrelated admin settings.
Manager Oversight
Allow managers to view reports, team records, or ownership-related data while limiting destructive actions.
Admin Control
Reserve account settings, bulk delete, and sensitive configuration access for trusted admins.
Troubleshooting
A User Cannot See a Record
Check whether their role uses Owned or None for that module and whether the record is assigned to them.
A User Cannot Export or Bulk Update
Review bulk action permissions and export permissions for the assigned role.
A Default Role Cannot Be Edited
Default roles are visible for reference but cannot be edited or deleted. Create a custom role if you need different permissions.
FAQs
Can I test how a role affects user access?
Admins can review user views and permissions to confirm how a role affects user capabilities.
Can one user have multiple roles?
Use the assigned role model available in the Users section. If access needs are mixed, create a custom role that matches the user’s responsibilities.
Should bulk delete be restricted?
Yes. Bulk delete can affect many records at once, so it should be limited to users who truly need it.
