Roles & Permissions Management System

1. Overview

The Roles & Permissions Management System with Multi-Auth Login is a comprehensive Laravel-based solution for controlling user access and privileges in web applications. It allows developers and organizations to implement role-based access control (RBAC) efficiently, ensuring that only authorized users can access specific parts of the application.

This system is ideal for businesses, educational platforms, corporate applications, or any web solution that requires multiple user types with different access levels. It supports admin, manager, staff, and client roles, with customizable permissions for each module, feature, or page.

The system is designed to be secure, scalable, and maintainable, allowing developers to easily add new roles, modules, or permissions without rewriting the code. Multi-auth login ensures that different user types can log in with separate authentication guards and dashboards.

2. Workflow

The system’s workflow is designed for clarity, security, and flexibility:

Step 1: User Authentication

• The system supports multi-authentication, allowing different user types (e.g., Admin, User, Employee, Candidate) to log in separately.
• Each user type has a dedicated login form, dashboard, and redirect route.
• Admin has full access; other users’ access depends on assigned roles and permissions.

Step 2: Role Management

• Admin can create, edit, or delete roles.
• Each role can have multiple permissions assigned.
• Roles define access levels for different modules and actions, such as view, add, edit, delete.

Step 3: Permission Management

• Admin can create custom permissions for modules like “Manage Users”, “View Reports”, “Edit Products”, or “Manage Orders”.
• Permissions can be assigned to roles or directly to users if needed.
• This ensures fine-grained access control, allowing flexibility in complex applications.

Step 4: Module and Access Control

• The system can have multiple modules, such as Users, Products, Orders, Reports, Quizzes, Settings.
• Access to each module is controlled by role-permission mapping.
• Users without the required permission will not see menu items or be able to access restricted pages.

Step 5: Multi-Level Dashboard

• Each user type has a custom dashboard tailored to their role and permissions.
• For example, Admin sees all modules, Managers see only assigned modules, and Employees see restricted functionality.
