Greetings all!
One of our highest priorities should be the RestrictByRole module capability; the ability to specify which user roles can view/edit which encounters. This is important to many based on the number of people that have voted (6) for the "Add roles-based form display feature ticket"... https://tickets.openmrs.org/browse/TRUNK-1640 ...which includes the ability to "filter form viewing and editing based on roles". This is also something that comes up frequently on the mailing list and on OpenMRS Answers. https://answers.openmrs.org/questions/585/a-way-to-set-role-privileges-t o-specific-form-entry-forms +1 on improving documentation Thanks, James From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Daniel Kayiwa Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2012 5:22 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [OPENMRS-IMPLEMENTERS] Roles and Privileges Sprint Greetings to you all!!! We are soon going to have a sprint on roles and privileges, during which we are thinking of dealing with the following topics: 1) Make it easy for an admin to see what privileges are needed to perform a sequence of actions. 2) Improve the page a user sees when they fail a privilege check. 3) Improve documentation on how to use privileges/roles and avoid pitfalls. 4) Implement Organizational Role as designed in this wiki page: https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Organizational+Roles Do you feel the above topics address what the community needs, as far as roles and privileges are concerned? Does anyone want a modernized version of the Restrict By Role module? Do you have anything to say about the Organizational Role API design? All questions, comments and suggestions are very welcome!!!
