In any Nextpoint database, there are four to five user access levels available for adding users with access being granted per database. The different user types, based on lowest to highest amount of access are: Reviewer, Basic, Standard, and Advanced.
Access | Description |
View Only |
View Only users can view documents assigned to them via a Folder (including redactions on those documents), share documents with others, and make page notes on these documents. They cannot view highlights or page notes made by other users, or redact/highlight documents. |
Reviewer |
Reviewers can access, code and set review statuses only for documents assigned to them via a Folder. They cannot apply bulk action coding decisions to a group and/or family of documents. Note: The Reviewer access level is not available for selection in Litigation databases as folders cannot be assigned. |
Basic | Basic users can access all data, but in a read-only format. They cannot add, edit or delete documents. |
Standard | Standard users can view all data and are able to edit and add information. They do not have access to manage users and/or settings such as folders, issues, and fields. |
Advanced | Advanced users have full control to manage users, add/edit/delete evidence (in bulk) and manage settings such as folders, issues, and fields. This role should be reserved for a small number of users. |
Dashboard Administrator | A person(s) having administrative control of a firm's Account Dashboard and maintaining the ability to monitor user activity, data imports, key metrics and the creation of new Projects and Databases. |
Outlined below are the specific permissions for each user role:
