Object access roles

When users do their work in Unica Plan, the system assigns them the appropriate object access role.

Each object type in Unica Plan has a set of object access roles. For projects and approvals, object access roles are also called "access levels."

For example, a person who creates a project has the project owner access level, and the users who are assigned to project roles have the project participant access level. Object roles for projects and approvals are also called access levels because project participants with the appropriate permissions can assign both object access roles and project roles to participants.

Every object type has an owner, by default the person who created it. Many object types also have extra roles, as described in the following table.

Table 1. Object types and associated roles
Object type Object access roles / Access levels
Plan Plan Owner, Plan Participant
Program Program Owner, Program Participant
Project Project Owner, Project Participant, Project Requester
Request Request Recipient, Request Owner
Asset Asset Owner
Account Account Owner
Approval Approval Owner, Approval Approver
Invoice Invoice Owner
Teams Teams Manager, Teams Member
Custom marketing object type <marketing object type> Owner

For example, if you have a marketing object type that is named Creatives, its object role name is Creatives Owner.

Object access roles support general system processing. As a result, they are not accessible through custom security policies.
