User Rights

Purpose

Rights for Roles and Users provide or deny access to the system features and functions. They provide a different level of responsibility to each Role and User, and protect system integrity and security.
Rights are predefined and the applicable Rights are selected for each Role and User.
If a user tries to access a system function or feature to which they do not have access rights then the system displays a message indicating that access is denied to the function or feature.

Roles

Rights are specified for Roles and then apply for each User that is assigned to the Role.
The system is installed with one standard Role, “Administrator”, which has access to all administrative activities and functions.
Other Roles must be set up for the organisation to provide customised access to specific users and groups of users.
Roles are configured using the Shared Configuration - Roles menu option.
