System Roles
Concord System roles are configured with pre-set permissions. Therefore, they cannot be modified or removed from the platform.
- Viewer - for team members that need to view or access documents and rich context only when needed. No other actions are permitted.
- Collaborator - for team members who work with contracts but are not authoring them. Collaborators can perform limited document creation, editing, and collaboration actions. If desired, Collaborators can be granted the right to sign by turning this setting on in Company Settings > Preferences.
- Creator - for team members who need full access and control to manage all aspects of the contract lifecycle. Creators can perform all actions on Concord except adding users, listing all tags, assigning users to teams, assigning roles, and removing users.
- Team Manager (Creator) - can perform all actions permitted to Administrators except setting approval on a document in review (Enterprise feature) and listing all tags.
- Administrator (Creator) - ALL actions permitted. Administrators are the only type of account that can manage folders and folder hierarchy.
Note: By default, the first user created in your company has a "Creator - Administrator" role. Each user can be assigned only one role per company/subsidiary account.
