Risk Assessments Permissions and Settings
Permissions required
There are 4 permissions which directly relate to the Risk module:
| Permission | Description |
|---|---|
| Risks: Create Risks | Allow users to create new risk assessments |
| Risks: Delete Risks | Allow users to delete risk assessments |
| Risks: Manage Settings | Allow users to manage settings for risk assessments. This permission also controls whether the Settings menu is shown in the Risk module and whether Save as Template is available on a risk assessment |
| Risks: View Risks | Allow users to view risk assessments |
System Roles
The permissions to access and manage risk assessments are only included in two system roles:
- ‘Risk Editor’ - this role includes all permissions above
- ‘Risk Viewer’ - this role only includes the permission, ‘Risks: View Risks’
The ‘Risk Editor’ and ‘Risk Viewer’ roles are only listed in role management once the Risk Module has been enabled for the account (see Settings below). Likewise, the ‘Risks’ option in the ‘Filter by Type’ dropdown on a role’s permissions tab only appears once the module is enabled.
Settings
The Risk module is optional in iPassport. Once it has been purchased it will become available in the ‘System Preferences’ area, where it can be enabled or disabled.
To enable the Risk Module:
- Go to Administration > Settings > System Preferences
- Scroll down and click Optional Modules in the System Preferences list
- Tick the checkbox in the column, ‘Enable/Disable’ of the Risk Module row
