Managing what users can do in your job management tools can be a chore. Orangescrum makes this simpler with the assistance of Function Groups.
Image: vectorhot/Adobe Stock One really essential task a job manager admin can take on is restricting user access to the bare minimum required to get their task done. Provide a user too much control and they could inadvertently damage your project; give a user insufficient control and they will not have the ability to complete their work.

Orangescrum gives you all the power you require to manage user function and produce Function Groups to make access management even simpler. For instance, you could produce a new Role Group for a specific department, set specific actions that the group can take and after that appoint users to the group.
What you’ll require to produce a Function Group with Orangescrum
The only thing you’ll require for this to work is a valid Orangescrum account.
This will not work with the community edition, so if you’re hosting Orangscrum on your own data center or third-party host, you will not find this function, as it’s only available via the cloud edition.
With your Orangescrum cloud account ready, let’s develop a Function Group.
How to produce your first Role Group
Log in to your Orangescrum account as a user with admin benefits. On the primary page, click Task Template in the left navigation (Figure A).

You ought to then see the new page for your Function Group. If you broaden Default Responsibility, you’ll see five different Functions that are pre-built. Broaden any among them to see how they are specified (Figure D).

At this moment, the users you’ve added to the new Role Group will have those particular consents. As long as you limit those users to just that Role Group, you have actually successfully limited them to what they can do.
Streamlined user management
That’s all there is to producing Function Groups with Orangescrum. If you have a large company with different departments that require different task management consents, Orangescrum significantly streamlines that procedure for you. Offer this function a shot and see if it doesn’t make your project management admin life a bit simpler.
