User Roles
The Configurable User Roles in BIMXtra are as follows:
Global Roles
These roles grant privileges across all projects the user has access to via User Company Access.
Edit Projects
Navisworks Highlighter
Superuser
Make the user a Superuser and grants them all roles included in System Admin Tab for configuration and setup of Projects and Users. Refer to BIMXtra - Superuser Guide for details.
Some functions can be applied individually via System Admin Tab if users are not required as full Superusers.
System Admin Tab
These roles are active for Superusers and do not need to be applied additionally to that. Normal users can thus be granted these roles without also being granted Superuser privilege.

Important Configuration
Note: This is an important setting that controls access to a project and the ability to publish forms to it and care should be given before granting this role to users.
The ability of a user to grant access to companies depends on their own Project Access setting and therefore they can remove access to companies that they have no control over. It is advised that this setting is controlled by a minimum of people all of which have Project Access over all the required companies accessing the project.
