How would I create a role that has the standard staff permissions and would also allow building staff (principals and secretaries) to see which device(s) their students have checked out to them?
Going a step further, is there an additional permission that would allow those same staff members to check in a device if a student leaves the district?
I had to make all of my staff agents to let them see the inventory for the locations I specified. There is a way you can allow them to be able to assign owners for those same locations but there isn’t a way to limit it to just students.
Hello! Have you tried copying the standard staff permissions, renaming it for your principals/secretaries, and then checking the “view” feature under assets? You can then assign this to those principals/secretaries and it will elevate the standard staff permissions for those people (but keep them in the staff role). However, if you need them to check in/out devices you might consider promoting them to an “agent”.
The only way right now is to make them an Agent, they won’t be able to see anything even if you grant them View Assets access individually because the “Agent View” is separate from the “Staff View”. You can set the default agent policy to a very minimal access staff role, then you have to manually remove their access to work/resolve tickets for their assigned location once you upgrade them to Agent. We have this set up for quite a few different staff roles.
Down the line we have been told they are revamping Permissions/Roles to where we will be able to create custom roles and have more granular permissions, but I haven’t seen an update on that in quite some time, it was estimated to be released Spring 22, but that is nearly over.
Thanks so much!
In the latest updates for Rollout Scout, you can assign Rollout Scout permissions to non agents now.
