Role-Based Access in the Help Desk
Keep Access Relevant - and Secure
Not every ticket needs to be visible to every employee. Whether it's IT, HR, compliance, or facilities - role-based access ensures staff only see what applies to them. It's essential for privacy and efficiency.
How Role-Based Access Works
- Group-Based Permissions: Assign users to groups (like Network, Lending, HR, Branch Ops) and define access accordingly.
- Ticket Type Filtering: Show only relevant request types to each group.
- Restricted Ticket Visibility: Sensitive requests (HR, security, disciplinary, etc.) stay private.
- Granular Assignment: Route and limit tickets to specific departments or users by role.
Use Cases in Financial Institutions
At banks and credit unions, internal requests span many departments - but not every staff member should see everything. Our help desk was built to reflect that reality. Role-based access protects sensitive information while improving response times.
