The list of attached price types displays information about name and sort of price type, assigned customers/vendors and activity status of a given type.

Tab Objects

Here the operator assigned to group B2_admin may manage permissions of an operator group to objects defined in the system.

New group form ─ tab Objects

The list of objects provides information referring to Area in which a given object is included as well as its Type (name). To each object the following rights can be granted:

  • Read – the right to accessing the basic list of objects of a given type and previewing its details
  • Add – the right to adding a given object type in the system
  • Modify – the right to editing (modifying) saved documents (objects) of given type
  • Delete – the right to removing objects of given type

In the menu there are buttons used for managing permissions.  A user can select option All Permissions or select particular permissions to any object from the list.

Buttons of managing permissions

With the use of the key combination Ctrl + A, it is possible to highlight all rows of the list and select/deselect a given permission for all the objects at the same time.

It is also possible to select/deselect permissions directly from the list level by checking/unchecking parameter in a   column with given permission.

Example
A user has all permissions to a given object granted, but cannot edit it. This can be connected with the fact that this object may   be using other objects to which the logged in operator is not entitled to.

For instance, if the user does not have the right to read payments and is attempting to edit a registered sales invoice, he will not be able to preview that invoice (despite having all the rights to the object of sales invoice type).

Note
During database conversion to the recent version of Comarch ERP Standard, permissions to Report object, that is Cash-Bank Report, will be granted automatically to all operators in all groups.
