A Permission screen under Role is a collection of security settings that one or more users share. Before creating a Roles,you can analyse the types of employees you have and can decide who will need access to the software and what features/functions they will need to use in the software. For example, your company may have 5 supervisors who all need access to the same functions. Instead of setting up each user and assigning these functions individually, you will assign them to a Role.
The permission screen will display the list of modules along with a short description and following checkboxes which allows you to restrict the user from certain functionalities.
Allow Access - Users in a role with this permission can view the list of objects that are a part of the module and view details of those objects. Some modules will require or imply Allowed Access to other modules. For example, when editing or creating a Fixed Asset a user will be implied to have access to Asset Types as a fixed asset cannot be created without an asset type.
Create - Users in a role with this permission can create new objects in the selected module. A role with permission to create is also allowed access to that module.
Edit - Users in a role with this permission can edit existing objects in the selected module. A role with permission to edit is also allowed access to that module.
Delete - Users in a role with this permission can delete existing objects in the selected module.
