Restricted entities (SM201040)

This topic gives you information about the elements that you find in this window in Visma.net ERP, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes.

In this window, you can view the restriction groups that contain a particular system entity, such as an stock item, a general ledger account, or a user, and change the visibility of the entity in the system by including the system entity in other restriction groups or excluding it from groups that currently contain it.

If a group includes particular users, only those users can view the group entities.

If a group doesn't include users, the entities of different types included in the group can be used only with group members.

You can create restriction groups for managing the visibility of a system entity by using the Restriction groups (SM201030) window or the window intended for entities of this type in the Manage section of the Row-level security workspace.

For more information about restriction groups, see: About restriction groups in Visma.net ERP.

CAUTION:
By restricting the visibility of accounts, subaccounts, and branches, you also restrict the visibility of the cash accounts that are linked to the restricted entities.
We recommend that you carefully configure restriction groups that contain accounts, subaccounts, and branches because including these entities in different restriction groups may block the processing of the associated cash accounts.

In this area, you can select the system entity type and the specific entity for which you want to view or edit its membership in restriction groups.

Element Description
Entity type The type of system entity.
Entity The particular entity of the type you have selected.

In this table, you can view the full list of restriction groups in the system, along with some basic information about each group.

You can select and clear these check boxes to change the membership of the system entity in restriction groups.
