Firm Information

When an option is marked, access is granted to that screen or function.

When an option isn't marked, access is restricted from that screen or function. Options won't be available or they'll be hidden on the screen.

When an option is filled, access is partially granted to that screen or function.

note

Security privileges aren't automatically granted when an application update adds a new screen, menu option, or report; when a new custom report is added to the Report Designer; or when a new security group is created.

The Reports
tab on the

Security Groups

screen allows you to control access to individual reports. This list includes all of the standard reports as well as any custom reports and folders you added to the application via the Report Designer.

If staff don’t have full access to the Report Designer and all of the reports, the Accounting CS Library portlet will have view only permissions.

If a security setting appears on more than 1 tab, changing that permission on 1 tab will also change the same permission on the other tabs.

To restrict staff from accessing a client, use the Staff Access
tab on the

Clients

screen.
