Individual User Tool Rights

As of Campus.2415, individual person tool rights are managed in the User Account tool.

Tool Search: User Account

Tool Rights determine the level of access users have to tools throughout Infinite Campus.

Due to the wide range of school-specific duties and policies, this article cannot recommend how to assign tool rights to particular types of users. District administrators must determine the appropriate amount of access for each user/group based on that user/group’s needs.

To Assign Tool Rights

Only users assigned a Product Security Role may assign tool rights to users.

  1. Navigate to a person's User Account (User Management > User Account Information > User Account)
  2. Click the Modify Tool Rights button. The User Tool Rights Editor will appear.

  3. Navigate to each tool you wish to grant the user rights to access and determine the level of access they should receive (Read, Write, Add, Delete). See the section below for more information about these levels of access and how they impact using Infinite Campus.

  4. Once all tool rights have been selected, click Update. The user will now have access to the tools marked. 

Understand Tool Rights Access Levels 

This section will explain the four different access levels that can be assigned for each tool within Infinite Campus. 

A partially checked indicator picture of the partially checked indicator has been added to the New Look of Infinite Campus, appearing in the RWAD checkboxes of tools/menu items where the user does not have tool rights to the tool/menu item but does have rights to tools or sub-rights contained within the tool/menu-item.

Campus Instruction Tool Rights

Compared to the RWAD rights structure for Campus Tools, rights to Campus Instruction are currently all or nothing. Each Instruction tool can have All rights for a tool or not. 

Identifying Sub-Rights

Sub-rights are used to control specific functions or gatekeep certain data within a tool. Sub-rights are also found under the tool it applies to and have a | to the left of the sub-right, delineating it as a sub-right.
