[Onix Work] Migrate existing users to our predefined roles

Roles are now mandatory for users and contacts in Onix Work. Therefore, we will create the following predefined default roles. Each role has its own predefined privileges, which are listed in Predefined roles for migration (PDF):

  • Roles for users: Administrator, User, Onix Pick and Pack, Worker.
  • Roles for contacts: Contacts - Custom 1, Contacts - Custom 2, Contacts - Custom 3, Contacts - Custom 4.

This migration will move your existing users and contacts to a predefined role with updated privileges.

  • New roles will only be created if there are contacts or users that meet the criteria. If no contacts or users meet the criteria, no new roles will be created.
  • Once moved, a contact or user will not be assigned to another role simultaneously.
