Resetting Permissions to Default

Resetting

The Reset to default button is at the bottom of the screen, next to Save. What it resets depends on which tab you are on.

1. 1Go to Settings, then Roles & Permissions.
2. 2Pick the role, or switch to People and pick the person.
3. 3Press Reset to default at the bottom of the screen.
4. 4Read the confirmation, which tells you what is about to be cleared.
5. 5Confirm.

What each reset clears

The two resets do different things, and neither touches the other.

• On the Roles tab: clears every change this shop has made to that role, putting it back to Fixmo's standard settings. It affects everyone with that role.
• On the People tab: clears that one person's exceptions, putting them back on whatever their role currently allows. It does not reset the role itself.

A reset is recorded too

Resets appear in the change log like any other change, showing who did it, when, from which address, and every setting that was cleared — one line each, with the value it held beforehand. That includes settings whose value happened to match the role default anyway: the setting existing at all is worth a record, so clearing it leaves one. You can filter a reset by section in the log exactly like any other change.

There is no undo

A reset cannot be reversed with a button. The change log records exactly what was cleared and what each value was beforehand, so it can be put back by hand, but Fixmo will not do it for you. If you are unsure, read the confirmation carefully before pressing it.
