Domains

Domains are assigned to user groups to limit the access to and operability of MineMarket objects for each user in the user group.

Domains need to be created prior to setting up accounts for users.

The Global Domain

When MineMarket is installed, it comes with the Global Domain. This domain cannot be deleted - it is the master domain. By default, the Global Domain assigned to the Administration user group. All MineMarket objects are available to the Global Domain, and all security rights for the Global Domain are permitted. The Global Domain has all check boxes checked; they cannot be unchecked.

Other Domains

Other domains are defined to have access to a subset of the MineMarket objects, based upon required functionality or security at the site. User groups are then assigned an appropriate domain, thereby limiting the objects visible to the users of each of those user groups.

Note that if an object is made invisible for a domain, then any object that depends on that object is also made invisible for that domain.

Examples:

  • If a location is invisible, then any routes or process flow using that location, or any transactions to that location are invisible.
  • If a packing template is invisible, then any discrete unit batches created using that packing template are also invisible.
  • If a sample template on a packing process flow is invisible, any discrete unit batches created with that packing process flow are invisible.
