Product Privileges

This feature ensures that users have appropriate access to the products they are responsible for, enhancing security and efficiency in managing product data.

Overview

This feature allows administrators to set privileges for users to edit or preview only specific product collections they are assigned to. Users can have access to a specific group of products or all products, as defined at the administrative level.

There is a strong correlation between products and multimedia, which may contain sensitive product data. Therefore, consider setting privileges in the media area as well.

Assumptions

  • Product Privileges based on Collection: Privileges are based on the product collection they are assigned to.

  • Feature Availability: This feature is not available in all price tiers.

  • Product Creator Permissions: The product creator always has permission to access the product they created.

  • Ergonode Transfer and Product Importer: The user who imports a product becomes the author and automatically has permission to the imported product.

  • Batch Actions: Batch actions can be triggered regardless of product privileges. The app will notify users of the details of the action if they lack certain privileges (e.g., status batch actions).

  • Users: Product privileges are set up per User
