LiveCompare roles

LiveCompare is a role-based application, which means that the role assigned to your user ID determines which features of the product are available. LiveCompare supports the following roles:

Administrator

The Administrator role is designed for users (normally a single user) who control user access and workspace availability. In addition to having read-only access to all workspaces, Administrators can add and delete user accounts, assign roles to users, and manage passwords, RFC Destinations and External Data Sources. Administrators can create, register and delete workspaces, and manage resource groups to determine which workspaces and RFC Destinations are available to which users.

Partial Administrator

Only one user with LiveCompare Administrator privileges may be logged in to LiveCompare at the same time. If a second user with LiveCompare Administrator privileges logs in, they are given the Partial Administrator role, allowing them to log off connected users.

LiveCompare Editor

The LiveCompare Editor role is designed for users who require access to the comparison functionality of LiveCompare. LiveCompare Editors can create and edit workflows, or import workflow templates into workspaces. LiveCompare Editors can also execute workflows to generate comparison results or reports.

LiveCompare Editors are able to create, register and delete workspaces, and manage RFC Destinations and External Data Sources. If LiveCompare is resource group-controlled, newly-created workspaces, RFC Destinations, External Data Sources and apps are added to the user’s current resource group.

LiveCompare Consumer

The LiveCompare Consumer role is designed for users who require access to apps. LiveCompare Consumers are able to access apps from the Apps screen. Consumers may also create and run app variants, monitor their execution and view their results. However, they are not able to access any other components of the LiveCompare user interface.
