  • 1.  Suitable Role for TBM Office

    Posted Wed January 07, 2026 09:14 AM

    I was wondering if there is a certain role that's commonly assigned to TBM Analysts? Ours primarily need to be able to upload data and review fallouts in TBM Studio compared to business users. Initially we thought that Enterprise Admin would be a good fit, but these permissions are unnecessary / unwanted:

    • Configure row-level security
    • Check out + adjust allocation rules / formulas

    Would Power User be a suitable role? Happy to receive any recommendations.

    Yes, the "Power User" role is an excellent option for a TBMA.

    If you prefer to remove specific permissions from the role, you can clone it, adjust which permissions the custom (cloned) role has, and assign the custom (cloned) role to your TBMA.

    If you wish to expand the "Power User" role's permissions to include access to another user's workspace, you would need to clone the "Power User" role to customize its permissions and add the "EditUserWorkspaces" permission.

    Thank you Matt, found it also indeed.
    Any idea what permission gives this possibility ? or is it only available for Admin ?

    Makes sense! It's kind of like assigning roles in BSD Brawl some players just need access to try out brawlers, test strategies, and review match results without being able to change game rules or settings. Giving them a Power User style role would let them do what they need while keeping the core game mechanics protected. It's all about giving the right level of access for their tasks.
