Every user account in TreeKeeper (including the guest account) will have several settings to configure allowing access to system features and setting user preferences.

System Settings
First, we’ll start off with system-wide user settings:
...
These are top-level settings and will override any layer-specific settings referenced further below.
| Info |
|---|
If a user cannot access any expected data on the map or in the Search Panel, chances are their Layer Access Rights need |
...
adjusted, which is located just below Security Level. |
...
Security
...
Level
An important step in managing a user’s account is setting the system-wide security level
...
.
...
Each of the different security levels in TreeKeeper are
...
defined below.
...
Guest
...
A guest account
...
would be the same as the default view of
...
TreeKeeper
...
when a user has not logged in. This
...
user has no ability to edit inventory data and has restrictions on what data and layers are available to be viewed.
...
Typically, guests
...
can only
...
see the main sites layer,
...
the City Limits layer, and the
...
Parks layer if there is one. The only
...
data guests typically have access to are
...
non-sensitive attributes that, if knowledgeable enough, they could physically go to the site and find for themselves. This includes address information, species, DBH, height, and
...
sometimes other geographic data like Park Name.
To
...
add or remove attributes/layers from guest access, please contact TreeKeeper Support.
Read Only
Like
...
Guest, the Read
...
Only security level does not
...
give a user
...
the ability to edit data. However, it does allow
...
them to view all data in the system, including more sensitive fields like Condition and Risk.
Edit
An edit-level user
...
can view all data, edit all editable attributes, and add/delete sites. The only significant difference between an edit and an
...
administrator user is that the edit-level user does not have access to the Administration Center.
Administrator
The
...
Administrator security level not only
...
gives a user the ability to edit inventory data, but also
...
gives them the ability to manage several additional aspects of the TreeKeeper system. They
...
can add, edit, and remove values from list-type fields, as well as
...
add,
...
edit,
...
and delete users.
Administrator accounts also have the authorization to request changes to the TreeKeeper system from TreeKeeper Support.
Contractor
The Contractor is a unique user account
...
type that is only permitted to edit
...
certain work record fields on work records
...
that are assigned crews they are a member of.
A Contractor can be assigned crew(s)
...
Contractor accounts can also be limited as to which work record attributes they can edit or view via the Admin Center’s Permissions Management section.
...
at the very bottom of the Edit User form after selecting the Contractor security level.
...
| Info |
|---|
In order for the contractor to be able to edit work records, the Access Rights for the layer must be set to “Edit” |
...
as shown below. Ensure that “Allow Edit Site” is unchecked if you don’t want that contractor to be able to edit sites! |
...
By default, Contractor accounts cannot make site edits. However, a Contractor can be assigned Rules that can be applied to sites. This allows an Administrator to fully control exactly what a Contractor can or cannot edit at both the site and work record level
...

Layer Access Rights
This section allows you to set access rights and privileges to each data layer individually.
...
Access Rights
Rights for each layer can be set to a few different
...
levels
...
:
No
...
Rights – User will not be able to see this data layer or access the information.
Read
...
Only – User will only be able to view sites in this data layer.
...
Edit – User will be able to view and edit sites in this data layer.
