For administrators to install and configure the module in Config Tool, and for operators to monitor the office space in Security Desk, the correct user privileges must be granted to their user accounts.

Privileges added by the Office Manager module

The following table lists the privileges added to Security Center when the module is installed. If these privileges are missing from the privileges list, the module is not installed on your local computer.

Although every company's organization is unique, we typically assign Config Tool and Security Desk privileges to users who install the module and set up the Security Desk workstations for operators. Operators are usually granted access to Security Desk privileges. Some privileges are required by all users.
