PowerSchool provides the ability to control access to individual pages. Page-level access for any given user group can be set to GROUP-DEFAULT, NONE, VIEW-ONLY, or FULL. Prior to setting page-level access, one needs to know about ["Editing Security Groups"] and ["Setting a User's Group"]

Activating Page-Level Permission Modification

To define each user group’s access to individual pages within PowerSchool, use this page to activate the page permissions function. The "Modify Access Privileges for this Page" link appears on every page when the page permissions are activated.

Modifying Page-Level Access

By clicking the link, you can define the access level for only that page (None, View Only, View and Modify) for each user group. If you do not define the page-level access for each group, the system uses the default access level you originally defined for the group on the Edit Group page. For more information, see the section "How to Edit Security Permissions."

After defining the access level for every group on every page, return to this page to deactivate the page permissions function.

On the start page, choose System from the main menu.
Click Security.
On the Security page, click "Access to Page Permissions." The "Access to Page Permissions" page appears.
Choose On from the "Turn modify permissions" pop-up menu.
Click Submit.
On the Security page, click "Modify access privileges for this page" on each page for which you want to define permissions. The Access Privileges page appears.
Select the option to determine the level of permissions:
- • Group default: Level determined as the group default on the Edit Group page for each group. For more information, see the section "How to Edit Security Groups." • None: No access to the page. • View-only: Can read but not modify the information on the page. • Full: Can read and modify information on the page.
Click Submit. The page reappears.
Click Home.
Click System Administrator.
Click Security. The Security page appears.
Click "Access to Page Permissions." The "Access to Page Permissions" page appears.
Choose Off from the "Turn modify permissions" pop-up menu.
Click Submit. The Security page appears.
