HAVING MULTIPLE DASHBOARDS ON HOLOBUILDER:

A HoloBuilder user can only have a management role (Enterprise Admin, Group Manager, Project Manager) on one HoloBuilder dashboard at a time.

However, any user can have multiple dashboard access at the project level when invited as a Project Admin, Project Editor, or Project Viewer. See also the full overview at the bottom.

The HoloBuilder Enterprise Dashboard allows you to replicate your company structure using user roles and job permissions to determine access within HoloBuilder. In the HoloBuilder Enterprise Account, there are several different roles for different users where each of them has its own permissions and abilities.

It is possible for a user to have only one user role within the company-level, but have multiple job permissions on the project level depending on how they are positioned within your organization.

Essentially, roles can be separated into two types of users:

Company Roles (enterprise users) - see below-
Job Permissions or Project Roles (individual project users) - learn more.

Company Roles are used across the service, while Project Roles are unique to a job or project. Company roles, in general, have access to the company dashboard including some high-level options, while project roles need to be invited to a HoloBuilder project in order to also get access to the Company Dashboard.

Note: Best practice is to only invite internal users of your company with Company Roles. Any externals should only be added to specific projects with Project-level Roles.

Permissions overview on company-level

(1,2) - see below

Roles within a Project-level access

Users with roles on the project-level (Job Permissions) are related to individual projects and have no company-wide access.

If they get invited to a project that belongs to a company dashboard, they gain access to a limited part of the dashboard as well.
They cannot create new company projects and are only invited collaborators on company projects.
In contrast to users with roles on a company-level, they can keep an individual HoloBuilder subscription additional to their role in a company project.

Recommended use: The roles on the project-level are more autonomous and can also easily be used for external or temporary users, such as owners and stakeholders, for individual projects.
