WG-545 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Background
User Maintenance implements the Indigina Core User Identities functionality which uses a secure database and is designed and implemented as follows:
/wiki/spaces/TD/pages/3385950227
The White Glove Application requires UI to a number of these entities.
Entity | Purpose | UI | Information | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Users | User | Yes | Capture information about the users and store it in the Identities database | Create a user |
Applications | Applications which exists | No | List of applications | eg. White Glove, SEKO 360, |
UserApplications | Applications a user can see | No | A UserApplication record will be created on save of the User for White Glove (and SEKO 360 WMS?) | Janet uses White Glove |
UserIdentities | What a user represents in the application | Yes | A user identity and user role are linked in this UI. A default identity will be created when a user is created. In most cases only one identity is required per user although each identity can have different user roles. In some cases more than one identity will be required, for example when somebody wishes to log in as a client in order to check the data and functionality. | Default identity against a user. |
UserRoles | User specific roles which can be associated with an identity | Yes | The few roles required will be created programmatically. The link from the Identity and the Role must be done through the UI. |
|
UserRolePermissions | Functional permissions | No | Permissions granted to specific roles | Programmatically created in the first instance. Allow users to access certain areas of the application based on the user role type allocated to the user. |
UserIdentityScopes | Row level security | Yes | In White Glove, scopes for the application translate as different types of row level security. If there is a need for different identities to see different data, this is implemented here. | Identities are given permission to see specific data and this has to be controlled by SEKO Farnborough. |
Example of Real User Records
Application: White Glove
Partner: SEKO Farnborough
User | Identity | Role | Scope | Explanation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Lucy | Internal User | “User” + “Admin” |
|
|
Lucy | Client | “Client” | Client = ”*” |
|
Kim | Internal User | “User” | Client = “ROOM” |
|
Jack | Client | “Client” | Client = “ROOM” |
|
Simon | Client | “Client” | Client = “Pharma” |

Requirements
Admin - User Maintenance
User Maintenance List Users to see users, their identities and roles WG-545 - Getting issue details... STATUS
User Maintenance Details Screen to view and update general user information and add identities WG-994 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Create User Identities (pass in user and identity alias and it will create the identity alone if the user already exists, otherwise it will create the user and the identity).
Manage role allocation against a user identity WG-995 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Create specific permissions against a role (backend programming) WG-996 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Manage scope allocation against a user identity WG-997 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Application User
If a user has more than one Identity assigned to them a selection must be made for a given user when they log on (eg. drop-down of identity if there is more than one). The selection becomes the default until a new selection is made. WG-1003 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Use of Permissions within Application
The White Glove application has permissions which need to be applied to screens and assets within each screen. WG-1004 - Getting issue details... STATUS
List of Users
Users can be maintained by selecting “Maintenance” in the left hand menu. This will show a list of users containing the following information:
User Name
Contact Details
User Identities
Internal user, possibly also client and supplier for specific users
Client for a client user
Supplier for a supplier user
User roles for each identity
User - application maintenance and configuration
Client - client view
Supplier - supplier view
User Details
Operations
The User record can be maintained, deleted, cloned and added. Identities can be selected in this screen.
Identities
Users can have identities added. An identity is one configuraton of a user which allows them to behave in a defined way within the application.
There is a default identity created when a user is created. In the White Glove application the identities are
Internal User
Client
Supplier
Roles
A user role defines what the user can do within its identity. Roles can be as big or as small as required and multiple roles can be assigned to an identity. Specific permissions are granted to each role.
Permissions
A set of permissions is applied to functionality within the application, enabling users to perform only the functions specifically allocated to them.
Scope
Scope is about the data which the user can see within their selected identity. This applies to a specific identity with a specific set of roles. For the White Glove application the current scope is confined to client and supplier records.
