About TransPort User Management

Configuring TransPort users is a two-part process that involves the following WorldServer objects:

  • User Type. The out-of-the-box TransPort User Type is a role defined by a limited set of TransPort permissions. Administrators can create several additional TransPort roles that include a range of basic to advanced permissions. For example, create:
    • A basic TransPort user type for client users. Select limited TransPort permissions for this user type.
    • An advanced TransPort user type for project managers. Select all available TransPort permissions for this user type.

    To configure TransPort user types, go to Management > User Setup > User Types. Note that the TransPort User Type can be modified and saved as new.

  • Users. There are no predefined TransPort users. However, administrators can create users and apply the appropriate TransPort user type permissions. For example, create a client user who is a member of a basic TransPort user type or a client manager who is a member of an advanced TransPort user type.

    To configure TransPort users, go to Management > User Setup > Users.
