Portfolio Data Center follows Role-based Access Control approach, that is the application access is restricted only to the authorized users. In PDC, the role assigned to your User ID controls the actions you can perform. System Administrators are responsible for managing PDC user roles and permissions. The system administrator sets these access controls in User Administration by associating permissions with employee roles. Following are the four roles associated with Portfolio Data Center:
Role | Description |
|---|---|
PDC Administrator | Provides full permissions for the Setup and Portfolio Desk areas of Portfolio Data Center. Grants full access rights to Entities and Exceptions management. |
PDC Manager Role | Provides nearly full permissions for the Setup and Portfolio Desk areas of Portfolio Data Center. Grants full access rights to Entities and Exception management and restriction to the maintenance of System Settings. |
PDC Analyst Role | Provides analyst specific permission for the Setup and Portfolio Desk areas of Portfolio Data Center and restricts maintenance of system settings and the ability to authorize overrides. |
PDC End User Role | Provides view-only permissions for the Setup and Portfolio Desk areas of Portfolio Data Center and restricts maintenance of entity reference data. |
