System Side Menu
Menus or options provided depending on what functions or features you want to use in Paradigm. Each main menu has also some sub-menus under it which you have the option to hide depending on your access level, your commonly used menus, and ease of access.
Permission Level
Your access level given to you by your institution when it comes to your usage of Paradigm. Users with FULL ADMIN Access are the ones who are advised to make changes on the System Tabs/Menus.
NOTE: These permission levels are indicative of those available and may not all be in use at your institution. Consult with your "nominated contact person" or other Paradigm expert before making any changes. If you are the "nominated contact person" or Paradigm expert for your institution and need further help, please consult the Silverband Helpdesk for more information.
The table below shows some of the Permission Levels in your institution:
Permission Level |
|---|
Accounting Member Access |
Applicant Level Access |
Full Admin Level Access |
Marketing Level Access |
Part Admin Access (Registrar) |
Party Admin group |
Public Permission |
Reception Member Access |
Staff Member Access |
Student Level Access |
Tutor Member Access |
Visibility
You can only change the menus visibility. Setting it to Hidden would make the menu disappear from the system tabs/menus.
Implications
BE ADVISED: Editing data in any of these options has implications across the entire system and across various security levels. Please ensure that all of the implications of any changes or updates are carefully assessed before making those changes.
NOTE: The Side Menu options make up each sub-menu within each Tab of the Paradigm System.
The System Tab and Side Menu Editing options are normally reserved for people with the highest level of system access, because changes made here have a system wide impact on the functions available from the side menu. If a Tab or a Side Menu option is set as hidden for particular security level, all of the pages and side menu options within that tab or side menu option are also hidden for all users who have that security level.
