Default Roles and Permissions

The charts below list the default permissions that are allowed for each PULSE role. See Permission Descriptions for a list of the user actions that each permission controls.

Be aware of Zone The term "Zone" represents different dairy locations. PULSE Zones may be different physical dairy locations (for example, multiple locations across the state or country) or different user-defined locations within a single dairy site (for example, Pens 1-100 are Zone 1, Pens 101-200 are Zone 2, etc.). "write" permissions as you are editing roles. The zone write icon is displayed for any permission level that requires zone selections. When you edit a permission level with this icon, you must also select which zones can be edited by users who are granted that permission.
