Adding Security Roles in Case Manager

Adding Security Roles in Case Manager

There are two levels to setting up security roles; defining the main permissions of the role then granting granular permissions. The default Security Role of Vertex Administrator is automatically added to each Case Manager installation. Person’s assigned this role can see and modify everything in Vertex Case Manager and should only be used by high-level persons within your organization.  Other roles as identified by your Vertex Implementation Team may have already been configured.

If your agency uses Client Payroll Manager or Billing Manager/Vocational Time Manager, certain elements of the Vertex product security are still configured in those applications.  If you create a new Security Role in Case Manager, it will be copied into Client Payroll Manager.  When you assign users to the new role in Case Manager, he or she will be moved into this corresponding new Access Group in Client Payroll Manager.  The user will also be assigned to that same Access Group if he/she is added as a licensed user for Billing Manager/Vocational Time Manager. You will need to configure the permissions of the new Access Group in Client Payroll Manager and/or Billing Manager/Vocational Time Manager prior to the person accessing these applications or the user may not have permission to use any parts of the application.

 For more information on Access Groups and how to configure them, see the article, Understanding Access Groups.
