Access to resources in ABBYY Vantage is controlled through roles. Each role defines a specific set of permissions for a given scope. There are two scopes in ABBYY Vantage: System Administrator’s Scope and Tenant’s Scope.
Note: Users granted a role and its permissions in one scope do not automatically receive the same access in other scopes, ensuring that each client operates independently.

System Administrator’s Scope

System Administrator’s Scope is designed for system administration and has only one role, System administrator. Users with this role have access to the ABBYY Vantage system administrator interface and can:
  • Manage tenants (view the tenant list, create and delete tenants, manage tenant subscriptions)
  • Manage users within System Administrator’s scope (view the user list for that scope, create and delete users)

Tenant’s Scope

Tenant’s Scope is designed to manage users within a tenant and has the following roles.

Tenant Administrator

A Tenant Administrator has all scope permissions and can:
  • Add users
  • Assign roles (any)
  • Grant a Skill User rights to a specific list of skills and their stages
  • Grant a Skill User rights to all skills (all current and any further) and their stages
  • Create skills
  • Publish skills
  • Create, test, edit, and delete connections
  • Access Skill Monitor to monitor the performance of the system
  • Add other tenants if the Fulfillment Operator role has been assigned to them by the System Administrator. For more information, see Creating a Tenant via the Vantage API.

The Skill Designer can create new skills and define their purpose within business processes. This role includes full permissions for existing skills and allows the user to:
  • Process documents using skills
  • Copy skills

Manual Review Operator

The Manual Review Operator can perform manual reviews at designated Process skill stages. This role can be granted access to selected skills and stages or to all skills and stages

Processing Supervisor

The Processing Supervisor can monitor transactions as they move through the skills and initiate manual reviews at defined Process skill stages. With this role, the Process Supervisor can:
