About colleagues and rôles
users accounts privileges permissions
Projects determine
the group of people who work together. For any one project these are
your
colleagues. You might be working on different projects
with different colleagues.
What are rôles?
Colleagues have differing rôles as you would expect within a
document preparation environment. Some people do the proof reading
while others deal with page layout or sub-editing. Even if you are
participating in several projects, you may be an editor for one
project but a proof reader in another. Your rôle determines what
facilities Ensembling presents to you.
| Viewer | Can only look at contents (and comments) |
| Proof reader | Can also make comments |
| Contributor | Can add items and review and make comments on them |
| Editor | Can also change the status of comments |
| Project leader | Can also grant users access to a project in one of these rôles |
| Manager | Can also start new projects |
| Administrator | Can do anything, in particular assign Managers |

Who are my colleagues?
You can find out who your colleagues are and what rôles they have

at the top of the window.
How do I add new colleagues?
Project leaders can also add new colleagues by clicking
(on the menu or the form).
Rôles can be changed by clicking on the pencil icon next
to the person's rôle. If you are not a project leader,
you can find out who is on this form.
How can I get in touch with a colleague?
Email addresses are displayed on the colleagues form (though people
can choose to withhold their email addresses except from project
leaders). You can click on one of the email addresses to send them a message.
