User Administrator viewing user lists

[delvs77]

I have a question about the User Administrator Role.

I logged in as system administrator and created several users while logged in as that ID. I also created a group and put all these users into the group. All users have the role 'Respondent'.

I then created another user (call this user A) and assigned the role 'User Administrator' to user A. When I log in as user A and click on the users I receive a message 'no users found.'

I would think that a user administrator should be able to see all users within the sytem (except maybe the System Administrator), but I'm not seeing any.

I was seeing a similiar behavior with the Survey Administrator. Unless I went in and set the ACL permission explicitly the Survey Administrator wasn't seeing the survey.

Please help...

It sounds like there is some confusion over the difference between a user's role and the permissions that user has been granted. User roles dictate which permissions can be assigned to a particular user. Permissions control access to Checkbox entities. Simply being assigned an Administrator role does not grant a user any additional permission (with the exception of System Administrator) over an entity. By default a user has access to only the entities they have created, be that a survey, a report, a user groups, etc.

Please review the Checkbox Permissions Guide, located in our documentation section Prezza Technologies | Documentation and Manuals, for a more detailed explanation.
