Permission profiles

Can an Administrator have a permission profile?

We do not recommend that an administrator has a permission profile as the profile will have to be removed if additional accounts are to be added to the administrator so they can then add the new accounts to other profiles and/or users.

How do I amend a permission profile?

Select User Admin
Select Permission profiles
Select the profile you wish to amend
Amend the Account permissions or User rights as required.

All amendments made will take effect for any users that have the permission profile assigned to them.

When the Permission Profile is amended by an administrator with dual administration set, the configurations within the profile will only become active once another administrator has approved it.

Therefore, it is important that permission profiles are dual approved prior to them being allocated to a user

How do I create a permission profile?

Select User Admin
Select Permission profiles
Select New profile.
Give the profile a name e.g. Accounts Department (max 60 characters)
Enter a description such as Accounts.
Select the Standard configuration profile which best suits your requirements, such as Balances and transactions. These starter profiles will give you the permissions as indicated across all of the accounts registered in Coutts Online. You can then tailor the new profile to meet your needs. No permissions does not contain any permissions and therefore can be used to create your own bespoke profile to use as required.
Select Confirm.
The profile is now ready to be customised.
