Insurance sites and access

Purpose

The Insurance board has its own site scope and access settings. Site scope controls which sites are part of the Insurance portfolio. Access controls which users, user groups, responsibilities, and owners can work with Insurance data.

Insurance uses the same board-site model as newer Compliance boards: you can add site groups or individual sites to the board.

Choosing sites

Open Insurance > Settings > Site Access to manage the sites linked to the Insurance board.

You can add:

OptionUse it when
Site groupsInsurance should cover a reusable set of sites, such as All Sites, EMEA, Warehouses, or a program scope.
Individual sitesInsurance needs one-off additions, exceptions, or pilot sites outside an existing group.

Adding a site group includes the active sites in that group. If a site is later added to or removed from that group, the effective Insurance site scope can change too.

Insurance-enabled sites

Insurance value and COPE workflows use the Insurance board site scope. Value and COPE import templates only include active sites that are linked to the Insurance board directly or through a site group.

When a site is missing from an Insurance value or COPE workflow, check both:

  • The site is linked to the Insurance board directly or through a site group.
  • The site is active and included on the Insurance board where the workflow requires it.

Board access

Insurance access is configured from Insurance > Settings > User Access. You can grant access to individual users, user groups, responsibilities, and owners.

Board owners hold every Insurance permission. When the Insurance board is enabled, the organization's group owners (excluding agents) become its board owners automatically. Any group owner or board owner can change the owners from the same page.

Important Insurance permissions include:

Effective access

Effective access shows the final result after all access sources are combined. A user may get Insurance access from direct board access, user group access, board ownership, organization ownership, or a responsibility assignment.

Site access is still respected on the board. Even if a user can access the Insurance board, they can only work with the sites in their site access.
