Where the function is intended for
A account list is often too broad once a new employee needs quick access. This increases the risk of unintended settings or privacy issues.

Dahua user roles and access
Not every user who is allowed to view live images needs to be able to change settings or export incident images.
Setting or condition
Determine whether a role or live image, playback, export, PTZ, or configuration is required. Also note which locations or devices are used for access.
Making a conscious choice
Limit roles as much as possible and use individual accounts when the system supports it. Schedule periodic checks on accounts that no longer belong to the organization.
What you check afterwards
Test each role with a test account and confirm that allowed features work while unwanted features are disabled. Document who manages the authorizations.
Frequently asked questions
Why can a receptionist not export automatically?
Export may contain sensitive personal data and requires conscious authorization.
Can rights be adjusted later?
Yes, but explain who is allowed to do that and why.
