Managing Users in BioT

Organization User Templates

BioT comes preinstalled with four Organization User templates:

Manufacturer Admin- top-level administrators of the BioT platform.
Developer User - Same permissions as a Manufacturer Admin, plus access to PHI in all organizations so they can build dashboards over all data.
Organization Admin - can add, view, edit and delete Caregivers and Patients of their own Organization, and view and edit its devices.
BioT Support - allows BioT to provide help to the manufacturer.

Environments upgraded from earlier versions may also contain Manufacturer Operator, Organization Operator and Manufacturing Floor User. These are no longer created in new environments.

For more information on the permissions available to each user type, see Attribute Based Access Control.

❗
Developer Users and PHI
Developer user grants access to PHI. Assign it only to named individuals who need full data visibility to do their work, and ensure they are covered by your organization's training programme for personnel with access to protected health information.
BioT recommends using Developer users in development and staging environments only, where data is synthetic or de-identified. If you create a Developer User in a production environment containing real PHI, deciding who receives that access is your responsibility as the data controller.

Customizing User Templates

Before adding new Organization users, you should edit the templates for the preinstalled template types to customize them to your needs. If you require BioT to save different data points for different Manufacturer employees, you might want to use the console to create different User templates, such as a Technician template, for example. For more information, see Editing Organization User Templates.

After customizing the User templates, the Organization's Organization Admin can:

Add new Organization Users in the BioT Organization Portal.
View and edit Organization Users in the BioT Organization Portal.
Link between two Organization Users in the BioT Organization Portal.
Delete an Organization User from the BioT Organization Portal.
