How Are Administrator Rights Assigned in Frontline?

Assigning Administrator Rights in Frontline: Set Administrators Up With Appropriate Access for Employee Evaluation

The Admin Rights Wizard provides the capability to assign administrative rights in Employee Evaluation based on User, Building, or Department. It is recommended to grant the rights for "View Historical Data" and utilizing the "Report Writer" tools. The following rights are available for assignment:
  • Form Designer: Allows the administrator to easily create and modify forms, with the added capability of embedding rubrics directly into the forms.
  • Rubric Designer: Allows administrators to easily create and modify rubrics that can be seamlessly inserted into evaluation forms in the future.
  • Component Manager: Allows administrators to design component templates and allocate components to district Evaluation Types and individual users.
  • Evaluation Assignments:  Allows the administrator to assign evaluation types to users and set the start and end dates for evaluation cycles.
  • Report Writer: The Report Writer tool allows administrators to run provisional and customizable reports within the system, and it provides valuable insight into your district's daily functions. (Suggest adding for all evaluators).
  • Ad Hoc Elements: Enables the administrator to assign Ad-Hoc Elements to users. (Not recommended as the forms are outside of the evaluation process)
  • Rollover Tool: Enables the administrator to rollover the district (or a subset of users) from one year to the next in bulk. This feature should be used in conjunction with your District Settings. It is important to only grant this right to a select group of trained administrators to ensure proper usage.
  • System Report: Enables administrators to access the various reports within the system that are available for the district.
  • Edit Archived Forms: Enables the administrator to edit the content on forms from a previous evaluation cycle. It is recommended to consider adding this right for HR Administrators.
  • View Historical Data: Provides the administrator with access to historical evaluation data. It is recommended to add this right for all evaluators.
  • Super Admin: Enables the administrator to have all of the rights above. Make sure that administrators who have this level of access have completed the necessary training.
  • Evaluation Rights: Provides Administrator permission to determine who can participate in a staff member's evaluation process and what level of permission the evaluator should have in the staff member's evaluation forms (e.g. Submit vs. View).
