Navigation
Admin users with access to Manage Organization will click the settings gear icon in the upper right
Navigate to Roles and Permissions from the left side navigation
The Roles and Permissions page is divided into three sections: Roles, Permission Sets and Workers. These are accessible from the header menu.
Roles
Roles in RIVET are synonymous with "Job Titles"
Roles in RIVET are completely customizable by the organization
Roles are organized into 'Role Categories'
Admin users can set default permission sets for each role
Role Categories
RIVET Labor Recommendations are controlled by organizing worker roles into categories.
Back Office
These roles will never be suggested for labor by RIVET Recommendations. Please note, you can still schedule Back Office roles to jobs if their specific role is set to "Scheduled Worker".
Supervision
These roles are your leaders in the field. Example: Foreman, Field Leader, General Foreman, Crew Lead, Job Manager. These roles will be recommended when a job requires a leader to be scheduled.
Journey Worker
These roles are fully accredited while seldom acting as leaders in the field. Example: Journeyworker, Technician, Service Shop Worker. These roles will be recommended by RIVET when the ratio dictates another Journeyworker is needed.
Sub Journey Worker Roles
These roles are workers that may still be training on the job. Examples: Apprentice (any level), Shop Help, Temp Labor, CW, CE, etc. These roles will be recommended when a job's role ratios require additional Sub-JW roles.
Sync Role Colors

Select if worker's with this role will be 'Scheduled Workers' or 'Back Office Staff'

Permission Sets
Admin users with access to Manage Organization create customized permission sets
These permission sets determine what is visible by users in their organization
Cleanup Duplicates
Permission sets with identical permissions are grouped in this section
Since multiple roles can inherit the same permission set, only one set of each configuration is required
Merge duplicated permission sets to prevent redundancy and clutter
Remove additional permission sets that are no longer needed
Create New
Create a new permission set by customizing a permission template
Permission Templates
RIVET provides seven permission templates
Starting from these templates, RIVET users can create as many unique permission sets as they need
Craft Worker - Limited view only access to assigned jobs with the ability to read messages and view their personal schedule for two weeks at a time.
Crew Leader - Limited view only access to assigned jobs with the ability to read messages and mark unplanned absences on assigned jobs.
Project/Field Leader - View only access to assigned jobs and workers with the ability to read messages, create labor requests and mark unplanned absences on assigned jobs.
Project/Field Scheduler - Full access to assigned jobs and workers with the ability to create jobs, workers, labor requests, absences and messages and the ability to create, edit and delete schedules on assigned jobs.
Labor Manager - Full access to all jobs and workers with the ability to create jobs, workers, labor requests, absences and messages and the ability to create, edit and delete all schedules.
Executive Viewer - View only access to all information and features in RIVET. Users will not have their roles or groups updated by the integration.
Admin - Full access to all information and features in RIVET including managing other users' notifications and application security. Users will not have their roles or groups updated by the integration.
