OneVue has a user role-based permission structure that grants access to account data and permissions to system features. There are two role categories - by Business Unit and Location. Location roles should only be assigned when recommended by Primex.
The Role assigned to a user sets their permission to OneVue features (what they can and cannot do) and the Business Unit assigned to their Role sets the data they have access to. At a minimum, each user is assigned to a Role within a Business Unit. In addition, users are assigned to a Device Class for each type of Primex device installed at your facility.
Depending on your account structure, you may have one or more Business Units. A user is commonly assigned to a role in the Business Unit they are responsible for.
Your OneVue account is the parent to all Business Units. If a user is assigned to the account Business Unit, the highest level in the parent-child hierarchy structure, the user is granted the same role to all child Business Units. If required, a different role can be assigned to the child Business Units.
The following is an overview of the available roles by Business Unit. Roles are designed to mirror common job functions.
Assign to staff responsible for managing your OneVue account - from configuring all settings, adding users, and more. It's recommended to have a minimum of two users assigned to the Account Admin role.

Complete Device Preconfiguration.

Access to the OneVue Audit Report, BU Activity Report, and all user type reports.
By default, the Account Admin role is granted the permissions of the Network Admin role. To only allow a network admin to have access to network profile settings, the Account Admin is Network Admin setting, located in the networks view, should be disabled.

This role has permission to:

Only when adding a new user, a BU Admin can assign a role to the user in their Business Unit. If a role change is required, this can only be made by a user assigned to the Account Admin role.
Create Report Profiles for their Business Unit, including the BU Activity Report.
Assign to staff responsible for monitoring their Business Units. In addition to the role assigned, a user must be assigned to the Device Class for the Primex devices at your facility.
When a new user is created and a role is not selected, they are automatically assigned to the account Business Unit as a BU (Business Unit) User. At a minimum, each user is required to be assigned to a Role within a Business Unit.
This role's permissions vary by the OneVue solution as detailed below.
