User Security
How User Security can work for you
In GRP a separate module is designed specifically for User and User Security Management. To access GRP, an individual must have a user account in the system. Each account includes a login, a password, and other required settings, such as the user’s first and last name, email address, password policy options, and access rights.
User accounts in GRP can be local (created and managed directly in GRP) or created and managed in external identity management systems, such as Microsoft Active Directory and Microsoft Azure Active Directory via integration. To make the authentication process easier for users, single sign-on can be configured with external identity providers.
Access to information is controlled primarily by the roles assigned to the user who logs in to the system. To access GRP, users must pass authentication to confirm their identity. Then users pass authorization to determine their access rights to the system objects, such as forms. Users can access only the objects they are allowed to use and perform only the actions they are authorized to based on their access rights.
Dashboard
Deliver key data from multiple data sources and provide actionable insights about the enterprise.
How Dashboard can work for you
Business Intelligence goes beyond simple reporting and provides you with information about your business to help you spot trends, identify inefficiencies, and make more informed decisions.
GRP leverages business intelligence tools, such as Insights, to help you aggregate your data from multiple sources, extract actionable information for strategic and tactical decision-making, and present it visually to stakeholders. Business Intelligence helps you make sense out of all the raw data from your system, such as finding your most profitable products and sales regions or identifying the weak links in your supply chain.
With Insights, large amounts of data from various systems can be aggregated, organized, and analyzed. Combine information from GRP’s database with data from external sources, such as Excel files, Salesforce, and Marketo, to gain a complete view of your company’s operations and customers. Use GRP’s generic inquiries to expose GRP data via an Open Data Interface (OData) for visibility by Insights.
