The current system, which categorizes user permissions into Company Administrator and User, will be updated to allow more granular control over access to system functions. This change will enable customized permission settings for each user.
Customizable Permissions and Preset Functionality
Permissions can now be assigned individually to users, and multiple permissions can also be grouped into presets for easier management.
Examples of Customizable Permissions:
Viewing MDSs
Editing MDSs
Approving/Rejecting MDS submissions
Transmitting MDSs for approval
Managing contact persons for inquiries
User management
Other options such as viewing basic substance information and accessing chemical substance data
Preset Functionality
The new preset feature allows administrators to predefine groups of permissions and assign them to users in one step.
For example, if a user is assigned the Company Administrator preset, they will automatically receive all the permissions included in that preset. Users can also have additional permissions added or removed after a preset is assigned.
Changes for Existing Users
When IMDS Release 15.0 is implemented, all users will retain their current permissions. Therefore, no updates to individual user permissions are required.
However, due to changes in requirements for regulatory data within the system (such as MDSs for future materials), all users will automatically be granted access to the Regulatory Information permission category.
Note: The user interface for the new permissions settings has not been disclosed yet. Detailed instructions will be provided through future newsletters.
