User groups control the data users can access and how they can interact with it. The following is a list of the standard user groups available in Command Center. Note that users can belong to more than one user group.
- Command Center Administrator: Users in this group can create, view, and edit library and activity and activity-related objects, view reports, create new user accounts in the app and Dispatch application, and add users to user groups.
- Activity Owner: Users in this group can create new activities and view and edit existing activities and their related objects. These users can also create tasks, manage service requests, and view reports.
- Dispatch User: Users in this group can access the Dispatch application via a tab in Command Center. See the Configure a New Dispatch User article for more information.
- Command Center Portal: Users in this group can only access the Command Center portal to create new activities. If an activity owner flags a portal user's activity as requiring follow-up or assigns a portal user to a task, the portal user view and edit those task and activity objects.
