CSA Troubleshooting User Access Issues with Forms

Access to Request a Service and Report a Problem forms within the CloudRadial CSA portal is essential for smooth operations, especially in systems where different users need varying levels of access. This article aims to address common access issues users may face, particularly when one user has access to forms while another does not.

Before diagnosing access problems, it's essential to understand the common causes. Here are some cases and their respective articles to help resolve the issue:

• Limited Feature Sets: The company or user may be assigned a feature set that doesn't allow access to the location for the forms.
  • Review at Partner > Settings > Feature Sets
  • Understanding and Changing Feature Sets
• Security Role Constraints: Users may be assigned Roles that have restricted access.
  • Inspect Role Membership: Ensure both users have the same role assignments and that those roles have the required access.
    • Review the User and the content to make sure the proper roles have access
    • About Security Roles
• Content Issues: Content may not be managed properly.
  • Review content either at company level or under Partner > Content

• Browser Compatibility Check: Confirm that both users are using compatible browsers and versions. Issues might arise with certain browsers.
• Test with Different Account: As a last resort, have the user log in with a different account to determine if the problem is specific to their user account or broader.

• Regularly Review User Roles and Permissions: Conduct periodic audits to ensure all users have correct and updated access rights.
