Access rights by role (SM201025)
This topic gives you information about the elements that you find in this window in Visma Net, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes.
In this window, you can fine-tune the access rights each role has to system
workspaces, windows, and even specific window elements.
Also, you can create a role
directly on this window and configure its access to system entities.
You use this window when you want to give a particular user role access rights to
multiple Visma Net system objects.
For example: You might use this window to give the custom user role
Chief accountant access to all windows of the General ledger, Cash management, and Supplier ledger workspaces.
You can also set multiple roles' access rights to modules, workspaces, windows, and window
elements in the Access rights by window (SM201020) window.
