System Groups
This section lets you manage your system groups the users are assigned to in terms of configuring appropriate controls for each object class. Controls are these interface elements which serve to insert and modify data when editing an class object.
If you want to create a new system group just enter a name on top of the “System Groups” screen and press the “Add Group” button. To delete a group, use the red cross icon. The root group can not be removed.
To edit the control objects for a group use the permission icon consisting of two keys on the right. At least, you should carry out this step for the group “root” so you yourself are able to create and edit class objects in the interface.
Having chosen the group, you will receive the list of all currently defined spunQ object classes where you will have to chose one of to proceed.
Then, a screen appears to adapt the appearance of the class to the system users belonging to the initially chosen group: On top you can choose the class-wide rights for reading, writing and deleting objects. Underneath, a list of all members consisting of 6 columns appears:
|
Column |
Description |
|---|---|
|
element |
the name of the current member (in square brackets the name of the corresponding table column) |
|
read permission |
check if you want to display this attribute to users |
|
write permission |
check if you want users to be able to edit this attribute |
|
interface element |
Select the element which best fits the member's data type. For relations, you will have to select the “m:n view” or the “n:1 select” element, respectively. For date fields the “date javascript” is recommended and if you want text data to be formatted by the users using a WYSIWYG editor chose “FCKeditor”. |
|
validation |
Here you can select an AJAX validation which will be carried out already when leaving the associated form input field. To add personal checks, use the spunq1.3/backend/controls/check/ folder for your code. |
|
context help |
If you want type a short explanation of how data should be entered to help the users when they fill out the form. |
It may be useful to select or deselect all checkboxes at once. To do this, use the two green buttons on top and on bottom of the page.
As soon as you have configured the class object interface according to your wishes, leave the screen by saving your modifications.
