ParentPay SIMS Permissions

[MCrawford]

Hi All

 

I have recently moved over to SIMS from Facility CMIS and have just been going through setting up MISSync with SIMS. I got to the stage of setting up a ParentPay service account in SIMS, but when I asked which groups the accounts needs to be assigned to the CSR just said full admin access. When I asked what that meant as far as which groups I needed to assign, the response was that SIMS isn't their (ParentPay's) product so they have no idea which groups to assign to the service account.

 

Every other external service has been able to give me the groups needed for their service accounts, so I can see why ParentPay can't.

 

Can anyone here let me know which groups you have assigned to your ParentPay service accounts?

 

Many Thanks

Mark

It's mainly the Third Party Reporting if you want the unique IDs etc, but if you want everything ours has:

 

Personnel Assistant, Personnel Officer, Schools Administrator, Senior Management Team and TPR (Note this account is used to sync a few products so some bits like the behaviour sync need some that Parentpay doesn't)

 

If you want to break it down in more detail, you can manually run the reports in SIMs when logged in to your service account and you'll see if bits are missing just with TPR.

Hi Steve

 

I've included the School Administrator and Third Party Reporting groups, I'll see if that gives me any problems. According to ParentPay, staff info isn't pulled from SIMS so I haven't added any personnel groups.

 

Thanks
