User Type Permissions

Conga Contracts User Profiles have three User Types available: Full, Casual User, and Contract Request Only. Individual users are assigned a User Type of Full in order to be assigned a Role granting access to features listed below in the Full User column. To be assigned a Role granting access to the features in the Request/View User column, the User Type of Casual must be assigned in the User Profile.

Note:

The “Contract Request Only” User Type in Conga Contracts, while it still functions, was a legacy attempt by Conga to provide a lower cost license for Users that are only meant to fill in Request forms and see the contracts they requested (that were self-service or approved; they have no access to Search Queries nor a view to any contract that they did not request, regardless of listed Responsibility).

A User Admin assigns each user one of the following user types in their User Profile screen:

  • Full user (default) - User can be granted any permission (Viewable, Create, or Modify) for the contract, company, and project groups they can access, as defined by their user role(s). The user's role(s) can also define their permission types and the level of access they have to additional forms and document types.
  • Request/View User - User can make contract requests and view information for their submitted requests whether or not if they are assigned the Requestor permission in their user role. User can view and add tasks and messages to any the Contract Profile to which they are granted view access per their user role.

The User Type field in the User Profile screen reflects the user's level of access to the Contract Request feature, as well as their access to program data and the tasks they can perform, which are controlled by their user role(s). The table below summarizes a user's permissions based on their user type.
