Page-Level Permissions

On this page:

There are two methods for modifying page-level permissions by user group. The first method uses the Enable Page Permissions page, and the other uses the Configure Page Permissions for All Groups page. If you do not define the page-level access for each group, the system uses the default access level you originally defined on the Edit Group page. For more information, refer to Staff Security Settings.

Enable Page Permissions Page

Use this method to define the access level (No Access, Read Only, Edit) for a specific page for each user group. After managing access levels, return to the Enable Page Permissions page and deactivate the page permissions function.

This method is required for setting page permissions on pages that do not appear in the navigation.

Enable Page Permissions Access

1. Navigate to the Enable Page Permissions page.
2. From the Turn modify permissions menu, select On.
3. Click Submit. The Modify access privileges for this page link will appear on every page now.

Set Page-Level Permissions

1. Navigate to the PowerSchool SIS page for which you want to define permissions.
2. Click Modify access privileges for this page. 

3. Populate the fields according to the information in the following table:

Disable Page Permissions Access

1. Navigate to the Enable Page Permissions page.
2. From the Turn modify permissions menu, select Off.

Configure Page Permissions for All Groups Page

Use this method to change page-level permissions by user group without navigating to different pages.

Any pages not listed in the main navigation will not be accessible through this method. This includes pages that are only accessible through other pages, and such pages do not inherit the permissions of the page they are accessed from. Use the Enable Page Permissions method to edit permissions for pages not listed in the navigation.

1. Navigate to the Configure Page Permissions for All Groups page.
2. Find the page you want to edit permissions for. The filters and search narrow the list of pages shown.
3. Click Edit Page Permissions for the selected page.
4. Select the permissions for any user group:
   1. Group default: Level determined as the group default on the Edit Group page for each group. For more information, refer to Group Security Permissions Setup. An (N), (R) or (E) appears next to the group indicating the level of permission for the group (No Access, Read Only, Edit).
   2. No Access: No access to the page.
   3. Read Only: Can read but not modify the information on the page.
   4. Edit: Can read and modify information on the page.

5. Change all groups at once by selecting an access level in the Set all groups to menu.

   

   Unsaved changes appear with an asterisk (*) next to them.

6. Click Submit.

If Change History is enabled, the Change History link is available. Click the link to view the Change History Details for that page.
