Registrations

🎯 Overview

The Registrations Page serves as the central hub for managing user access and role assignments within projects. This comprehensive interface provides complete user registration lifecycle management, from initial enrollment through role modifications and access removal. The system enables efficient team management with role-based access control, bulk operations, and streamlined user onboarding workflows.

The Registrations Module operates with integrated components for complete user management:

• 🔍 User Registration Management: Add, modify, and remove user project access with role assignments
• 👥 Role-Based Access Control: Hierarchical permission system with project-specific role assignments
• ⚡ Quick Operations: Streamlined workflows for common registration tasks and bulk operations

🔐 Access Requirements

👥 Required Roles & Permissions

• View Registrations: registrations.view permission
• Register Users: projects.register permission (global or team-based)
• Update Registrations: registrations.update permission
• Team Management: Team Manager role or Area Manager role
• User View: users.view permission for user search and selection

🌐 Permission Scope

• Project-Based: Registration operations limited to user's assigned projects
• Hierarchical Control: Users cannot grant higher permissions than they possess

👥 Registration Record Structure

// Registration Database Record
{
  _id: "registration123",
  projectId: "project456",
  username: "john.doe",
  firstName: "John",
  lastName: "Doe",
  role: "system.team-manager",
  type: "full", // full or temp
  isClient: false,
  deleted: false,
  createdAt: new Date(),
  modifiedAt: new Date(),
  createdBy: "admin123",

      timestamp: new Date(),
      changes: { role: "system.employee" },
      modifiedBy: "manager456"
    }
  ]
}

🔐 Permission Validation Logic

// Permission Checking Algorithm
const validateRoleAssignment = (authorId, targetUserId, newRole, projectId) => {
  const authorPermissions = getProjectRolesForUser(authorId, projectId);
  const targetPermissions = getProjectRolesForUser(targetUserId, projectId);
  const newRolePermissions = rolePermissions[newRole];
  
  // Check if author can grant the new role
  const canAdvance = newRolePermissions.every(
    permission => authorPermissions.includes(permission)
  );
  
  // Check if author can remove current permissions
  const canDemote = targetPermissions.every(
    permission => authorPermissions.includes(permission)
  );
  
  // Team managers can bypass individual permission checking
  const isTeamManager = userIsInProjectRole(
    authorId, [roles.project.teamManager], projectId
  );
  
  return isTeamManager || (canAdvance && canDemote);
};

📊 Bulk Operation Processing

// Bulk Registration Processing
const processBulkRegistration = async (userIds, role, projectId, authorId) => {
  const validationResults = await Promise.all(
    userIds.map(userId => validateRoleAssignment(authorId, userId, role, projectId))
  );
  
  const validUsers = userIds.filter((_, index) => validationResults[index]);
  const invalidUsers = userIds.filter((_, index) => !validationResults[index]);
  
  if (invalidUsers.length > 0) {
    throw new Error(`Permission denied for users: ${invalidUsers.join(', ')}`);
  }
  
  return Promise.all(validUsers.map(userId => 
    registerUserToProject(userId, projectId, { role, authorId })
  ));
};

🔍 Search and Filter Implementation

// Registration Search and Filter
const buildRegistrationQuery = (filters, projectId) => {
  const query = { projectId, deleted: false };
  
  // Text-based filters
  ['username', 'firstName', 'lastName'].forEach(field => {
    if (filters[field]) {
      query[field] = { $regex: filters[field], $options: 'i' };
    }
  });
  
  // Exact match filters
  if (filters.role) {
    query.role = filters.role;
  }
  
  // Full-text search capability
  if (filters.textSearch) {
    query.$text = { $search: filters.textSearch };
  }
  
  return query;
};
