In the initial phase of the construction of an FCS-Platform, the
Platform Administrator ("p-admin) takes the key role. Before we go any
further with the individual functions and options, it is important to
understand the differentiation between the roles of the
System-Administrator ("s-admin), Platform-Administrator ("p-admin), and
the normal User ("User):
System administrator ("s-admin")
Platform administrator ("p-admin")
Users
FCSs functional hierarchy can be illustrated using an analogy of the construction and use of a house:
- The purchaser (designer) announces what the house (in our case, the platform) should look like.
- The system administrator (builder) transfers a ready-made house (platform) to one or more platform administrators (new owners).
- The platform administrator sets the house rules, divides the users
into groups, sets the password for each user, and can also structure
the arrangement of the house (the platform arrangement).
- A few users move throughout the house, inhabit the house, help with its arrangement, expand or change it, etc.
Forms of use: both ASP and self- installation are possible.
FCS offered as ASP solution: The
server remains located at factline, furthermore, the functions of the
system-administrators are taken over by factline. The system can also
be installed on the server of the customer over an Intranet or the
Internet; in this case the customer is the system administrator.
