Understanding users, collaborators, and super admins #

Users #

The users are all the people enrolled in the services with their own email and full name. They are resources not tied to the organization and their ownership lies entirely with their owner who identifies him or her. This happens because some RevasOS resources are strictly tied to the individual who represents the account and not to his or her membership in the organizations. A person before being able to access an organization therefore must have created his or her own user account.

Collaborators #

Users then can be invited to collaborate in an organization using the collaborators function. A collaborator then is a user who has permission to operate on a specific organization.

If the contributor is deleted, the user continues to exist on RevasOS but loses all access privileges to the organization.

Super admin collaborators #

Once a collaborator is added to the organization, he or she can be given the additional power of super admin. The super admin then is a special collaborator, but retains all the functions of the other collaborators.

This additional permission makes the collaborator able to add other collaborators, change organization settings, modify roles and permissions, and elect new super admins. It has no other privileges, so to add functions to the system, it is necessary to use the roles and permissions function. The creator of the organization is super admin automatically.
