Reviewing Data Job Types for users

From 5.43 when users are onboarded they can now select the job type their role best aligns with.

This allows K to track data usage by job type along with teams.

The default job types include:

• Applications

• Business user

• Data Analyst

• Data Architect

• Data Engineer

• Data Governance

• Data Scientist

• ETL Tools

• IT Security

• IT User

• Reporting Tools

You can edit the list of job types by accessing the Job Type Platform collection (Go to Collections → K Platform). It is recommended that you create a new Job Type rather than edit a pre-existing Job Type.

Determining how Data Owners/Stewards can be assigned

K Platform gives you the option to restrict which individuals in your organisation can be assigned a Data Owner/Steward or whether anyone can be assigned.

If the Data Owner / Steward (Data Roles) option is selected, then a user must first be added to the Data Owner or Data Steward group (Platform collection) before they can be assigned as a Data Owner or Steward of a Data Asset.

If Any User is selected, then any user onboarded in K can be assigned as a Data Owner or Data Steward.

If you would like to change this setting:

• Select Platform Settings in the side bar

• In the pop up panel under Administration click on Customisation

• Scroll down to the Data Governance Setup section
