What rights do I need as an operator to operate SRM

Hi,

I'm unable to create an SRM booking due to insufficient user rights.
I get the following error stating that I need the ResManReservationAdd permission, but I can't find it in the system center.

Message: This user is not allowed to add ReservationInstances. The required permission flag is ResManReservationAdd,

This got me thinking, what is the minimum set of rights a user group requires to be able to use SRM?

Hi Ive,

The following information is based on the experience I had when I was member of A&O domain

  • to have active SRM management in software, the SRM license must be included along with elastic database.
  • In Visual Overview, there is a component called BookingData. This component access several components in order to get SRM data.
    The following read permissions are needed:

    • PermissionFlags.ResManReservationUITimeline // Bookings/UI Available
    • PermissionFlags.ResManResourceUI // Resources/UI Available
    • PermissionFlags.SRMUI // Services/UI Available
    • PermissionFlags.FunctionManagerUI // Functions/UI Available
    • PermissionFlags.ProfileManagerUI // Profiles/UI Available
  • For SRM management itself, best practise would be (I assume) to have all permissions on modules:
    • Bookings
    • Resources
    • Services
    • Functions
    • Profiles
  • For the solution, I assume few additional rights are needed, such as Automation and Documents.
  • ResManReservationAdd location:

Hope this helps you further
