What can you expect with OPS-COM Training?
OperationsCommander is a system with many modules. You will be trained based on which modules you have purchased, however, there are some modules that are core OPS-COM; for example, User Management, Payments, System Admin and Configuration. If this is a new installation, your Account Exectuitve will be in touch right after your Preview site is setup to start the discussions about setting up OperationsCommander.
Module 1 - OPS-COM System Setup
System Config
Determining your Roles and Permissions
OPS-COM allows System Owners and Administrators the ability to setup roles that will restrict access to information and features in OPS-COM. Roles are a group of permissions that are bundled and assigned to a set of users. For example, you may wish to create a role for Patrol Officer. You will set the permissions for this role and assign users the role of Patrol Officer when you would like to grant them permissions that match that job. Users can be assigned multiple roles.
