Officers and capacities

The people involved with the administration of a system are referred to as officers. An officer can have one or more of the following capacities:

  • System owner
    • Create and edit organizations
    • Create and edit new officers
    • Assign officers to be system owners, organization owners, and administrators
  • Organization owner (for one or more organizations)
    • Edit organization
    • Create and edit new officers
    • Assign officers to be organization owners, and administrators
  • Administrator (for one or more organizations)
    • Monitor events
    • Manage access rights, i.e. doors, users, devices, schedules...
    • Configure door groups and hardware

Administrator views

The administrator GUI is separated into three different views that mirror the capacities system owner, organization owner, and administrator. For a large installation, these may be used by different people. For a smaller installation, it is likely that the same person(s) will use all three views, but for different things.

System owner

This view is accessible to officers with the system owner capacity, and is available at:

https://access.telcred.com/sys


System owner


When creating a new organization, the system owner specifies the default time zone (can be changed for individual door controllers). In the same screen, the system owner can assign officers to be organization owners and / or administrators.

The system owner can also appoint other officers to be system owners. This is done when creating or editing an officer. In the same screen it is also possible to assign the officer to be organization owner for one or more organizations:


Create system owner


Telcred Access Manager supports two-factor authentication for officer login and we highly recommend to use it. The only method currently supported is Yubikey OTP (One Time Password). More information about two-factor authentication can be found here.

An officer can be temporarily blocked, in which case he or she will not be allowed to login.

Organization owner

This view is accessible to officers with the organization owner capacity, and is available at:

https://access.telcred.com/org


Organization owner


An organization owner can edit the organization name and default time zone, and assign officers to be organization owners and / or administrators (for the current organization). Assigning officers can be done when updating the organization information OR when creating or editing officers:


Create organization officer

Administrator

This is the normal administrator view, where an officer with the administrator capacity can add new users, assign access rights to users, etc. This view is available at:
