Access roles
Once a person has been linked to an organization, meaning a personal account has been linked to an organization account, the administrator of the organization should assign his newly linked member an access role to define the parts of the organization account he will be able to access.
By default, a newly added member has 'no access' to the organization account.
Only once the access role is defined, the new member can access all or only specific items of the organization's menu. This user-specific characteristic of our MyKNX accounts is meant to protect all organization types from abuse.
Organization types
Depending on the type of your organization, i.e. Training center, Manufacturer, ETS App developer, etc, specific access roles were created, corresponding to the needs of the different organization types.
An organization type can be either:
1. None
2. Training Centre
3. Member
4. Manufacturer
5. ETS App Developer*
6. Online Catalog Admin*
7. Scientific partner
8. National Group
9. Test Lab
10. User Club
11. Associated partner
* This type requires the assignment of the 'Manufacturer' type
Be aware that an organization can be one or multiple organization types:
For example, a KNX Member can be as well a training centre and/or an ETS Apps developer.
