Overview

Business Admin Portal profiles (Disabled, default, Read Only, or Full Access) are assigned to user roles via the Business Admin Portal custom interface type (InterfaceBusinessAdminPortal), and define the level of access a user has to the following functionality in the Business Admin Portal.

  • Features (menus)

The table describes the predefined Business Admin Portal profiles that ship with InterfaceBusinessAdminPortal:

Business Admin Portal Profiles and Field Display Policies

The default Business Admin Portal profile is associated with the following field display (FDP) policies:

  • BusinessAdminPhoneFDP

  • BusinessAdminUccxAgentFDP

  • BusinessAdminUccxTeamFDP

These FDPs can be cloned and edited to create new customized FDPs. Or you can create completely new FDPs for the Business Admin Portal profile.

Multi Vendor and Business Admin Portal Profiles

The default FDP for multi vendor scenarios (MultiVendorFDP) is not associated with any Business Admin Portal profiles by default. You will need to manually enable multi-vendor for any of the Business Admin Portal profiles, which will then use the multi-vendor FDP.

  1. Log in to the Admin Portal as a provider administrator (or higher).

  2. Go to (default menus) Customizations > Business Admin Portal Profiles.

  3. Click on the relevant profile to open the editing screen.

  4. Clone the profile to create a new custom Business Admin Portal profile.

  5. On the Subscribers tab, select Enable Multi Vendor.

  6. Save the profile. Allowed features will now be determined via the multi vendor FDP.

Microsoft-Only Business Admin Portal Profile

VOSS Automate ships with a Microsoft-only Business Admin Portal profile (MicrosoftOnlyBAP), which is included in the MicrosoftOnlyRole, a Microsoft-only user role that provides a Microsoft-only GUI experience suited to a Microsoft-only (single-vendor) environment where you wish to hide functionality related to vendors other than Microsoft.

For more information around MicrosoftOnlyRole, see Add and Edit Roles in the Core Feature Guide.
