♦ New in 4.4 ♦

Actions

Read: Allows a user to view components in Schedule Builder

Update: Allows a user to edit components in Schedule Builder

Create: Allows a user to create components in Schedule Builder

Delete: Allows a user to delete components in Schedule Builder

Functions

uAchieve Schedule Builder

SB_AUTOGENERATESCHEDULE: Controls permissions for the autogenerated schedule function, including preferences, bookmarks, and locks
SB_SCHEDULE: Controls permissions for courses and sections on the schedule

New App Function in 4.5.1

SB_SHARE: Controls schedule sharing

New App Function in 4.5

SB_BUSYTIME: Controls permissions for the creating blocks of time ("Busy Time") on the schedule

New App Functions in 4.4

CS_ADMIN_FUNCTIONAL: Allows the user to access all admin functions except the logging area
CS_ADMIN_TECHNICAL: Allows the user to access only the logging area–no admin functions
CS_ROLE_ANONYMOUS: Allows the user access to the "Access Denied" page. A user with CS_ROLE_ANONYMOUS with READ set to FULL can access the login screen without the "Access Denied" error.
CS_ROLE_STAFF*: Allows the user to access the staff menu within the application
CS_ROLE_STUDENT*: Allows the user to access the student menu within the application
CS_ROLE_USER*: Allows the user to gain entry into the application. Every user MUST have this role and must have CREATE set to FULL

NOTE:
The following functions are considered flags that must be set in order for other permissions to work:

CS_ROLE_STAFF: Must be set to FULL for everything if the role pertains to Staff of any sort
CS_ROLE_STUDENT: Must be set to FULL for everything if the role pertains to a Student of any sort
CS_ROLE_USER: Must have FULL permission across the board for all roles you create

Access

Three types of access in Schedule Builder include Full, Restricted, and None:

FULL: User has complete access

RESTRICTED: Same as Full

"Restricted" access is the same as "Full" access across all uAchieve web apps except the uAchieve Planner.

NONE: User has no permissions to control access

Control Access

Permission must be set to use each separate function in Schedule Builder.

A simple formula to remember for setting permissions is: Action + Function + Access Type = Permission Setting

For example:

Create + SB_AUTOGENERATESCHEDULE + FULL = Allows the user to generate schedules

Create + SB_AUTOGENERATESCHEDULE + RESTRICTED = The same as Create + SB_AUTOGENERATESCHEDULE + FULL

Create + SB_AUTOGENERATESCHEDULE + NONE = Prevents users from generating schedules

NOTE:
Although each function in Schedule Builder has a drop-down option for each action, it is inaccurate to say that you can control Read, Update, Create, and Delete access for each function.
