Role Management

WATSMobile utilises a concept of users and role management. A user is allocated a series of roles, e.g. Admin, local admin, defendant admin, diary admin. Additional data roles are created for each Court Area which has data deployed in the database. Thus, for a example, a user who has been allocated a data role of “Wiltshire” would be able to see all the defendant and warrant information for Wiltshire. Should, for example, Dorset Court Area Data be held in the same SQLServer database a Wiltshire user who has been given the additional role of “Dorset” would also be able to interrogate data for the Dorset Court Area.

Current Roles within WATSMobile – excluding the Court Area data roles are:

• Admins – control of users and configuration of the whole database

• LocalAdmins – control of users and configuration for their own nominated court area

• Users – standard read only access to data within the database

• Allocations – Users who can be allocated and view warrants

• Allocationadmins – can control the allocation of warrants to users

• DataTransfer – can import warrant data

• Defendant Admins – can amend defendant and warrant data

• DiaryUsers – Can update their own Enforcement Officer Diary

• DiaryAdmins – can administer and view diary entries for all diaryusers

• ExportData – can export data into a spreadsheet based on their chosen search criteria

• Officers are listed in the allocations table and may add notes to a defendant but not amend the defendant or warrant details

• Restricted – All captions describe entries as “Fines” and not “Warrants”. This role is intended for Police users who are not required to deal with the arrest or detention of a defendant but only be aware that the defendant has previously defaulted on fine payments for the purposes of Conditional Cautioning.
