User Permissions

User permissions types control what you can do in Basis. An organization manages user permissions at an individual user level. To view your permissions, access User Settings.

Different permissions give you access to different features. At least one member of your organization has User Management permission to control user access. This team member turns permission types on and off for other team members. Permissions are configured under the Users tab in My Organization.

Permission Types

Base access (all permissions deselected) provides a user with read-only access to most of Basis. You can view the My Organization and User Settings pages, along with the communications, directory, initiative, campaign, and media plan information in Basis. Additional actions such as sending messages, adding account team members, creating comments on line items, receiving private emails, and editing notes are also available.

Ad Serving

Ad Serving permissions allow you to manage accounts in the Ad Server Accounts tab, apply ad serving rates, and export to the ad server.

Analytics Reporting

With Analytics Reporting permissions, you can create campaign delivery and performance reports and send vendor performance alerts. See Campaign Reports for more information. If you do not have Analytics Reporting permissions, you can still view campaign information in the Analytics tab but you cannot create reports.

Asset Management

With Asset Management permissions, you can configure private marketplace deals, creatives, domain lists, and pixels. 

Billing

Billing permissions allow you to access the Billing and Settings tabs in My Organization.

On the Billing tab you can generate and download accounts receivable and accounts payable reports for client orders and vendor billing reports. Advantage users can view and manage Advantage account credentials and ad serving codes. Strata users can view and edit ad server IDs for Strata.
