Units allow you to organize and segment access to the platform’s data, ensuring that each user sees only the information relevant to their role or context. This is essential in environments with multiple customers, suppliers, or specialized teams.
The main ways to use them are:
-
Segmentation by customer: create a unit for each customer and assign users who should view only that customer’s data.
Example
An operator assigned to Customer A will view only the customer’s devices.
-
Segmentation by regional unit or branch: organize access based on geographic units or branches.
Example
A manager at the Curitiba branch only accesses data for that location.
-
Supplier organization: create specific units for each supplier and link the customers they serve.
Example
Supplier X only accesses data for Customers A, B, and C, whom they serve.
-
Customized access for users: create specific units for users who need to access data only for certain devices.
Example
An external auditor can access only data for thermal printers.
-
Customer-specific reports: control which users can generate reports for specific customers.
Example
The BI team can access only Customer Z’s data in reports.
-
Supply demand management: allow users responsible for supplies to access only the devices for which they are authorized to generate purchase orders.
Example
The logistics employee views only the printers.
These are some examples of how units optimize management, improve data security, and customize the experience in NDD Orbix.
