Hierarchy & Roles

On this page, You manage the person roles and the organizational structure of Your company. You define which roles exist, how they are arranged hierarchically, and which main category is used for structuring.

Hierarchy & Roles

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

LiteLog uses a role-based access control system (RBAC). Every user is assigned exactly one role, and each role defines which features that user may access. This ensures that every employee only sees and edits the areas relevant to their tasks.

Key characteristics:

  • You can create your own roles at any time — there are no fixed requirements
  • Each role can be individually equipped with permissions
  • Permission changes take effect on the user's next login
  • Maximum of 20 roles per company

Features Overview

Person Roles

The table shows all defined roles in Your company — for example Admin, Operations Manager, Employee, or Site Manager. Use the edit icons on the right to rename or delete existing roles.

Create Role

Click the button in the top-right corner to create a new role. Enter a name and select the desired permissions from the permissions list. The role is immediately available in the hierarchy and for employee assignment. The create dialog can also be opened directly via the URL parameter ?createRole=1.

Edit Role

Click the edit icon next to a role to change its name and permissions. In the edit dialog, you see an overview of all currently assigned permissions and can adjust them at any time. Direct access via the URL parameter ?editRole={id}.

Delete Role

Click the delete icon to remove a role. A role can only be deleted when no employees are assigned to it. Direct access via the URL parameter ?deleteRole={id}.

Hierarchy Levels

Define how many levels Your company structure consists of. The first level describes the most general category (e.g., "Customer"), the last one the most specific.

Main Category

Choose the main category to structure Your data into groups.

Subcategory

Choose a subcategory to organize specific data such as attendance tracking and checkpoints.

Account Alias

Define how accounts are named in Your system (e.g., "Employee", "Team Member").

Good to Know

Note
  • During registration, five default roles are automatically created: Admin (all permissions), Operations Manager (properties, time tracking, employees, patrols, incident reports), Employee (read-only access and create incident reports), Customer (minimal permissions), and one freely configurable role.
  • You can rename default roles and adjust their permissions at any time — only the Admin role is protected.
  • A role can only be deleted when no employees are assigned to it.
  • Maximum of 20 roles per company.
