Please see our video tutorial at: Getting Started: Setting Up Read/Write Security
The Security feature in Artsystems Pro allows the database Administrator to setup password access to individual areas or parts of the database.
This feature is broken down into GROUPS and their associated USERS. When a GROUP is selected, click thePermissions tab, and you can globally give ALL rights by un-marking and re-marking two check boxes at the top, Display and Enable/Change. GROUPS are given either no privileges, read-only, or editing privileges to program modules and their data (Works, Transactions, etc) by carefully selecting the Permission levels from the Permissions list.
USERS are associated with and have the privileges of their GROUPS. Therefore, it is best practice to carefully construct the GROUPS and the USERS within those GROUPS before setting up the Security feature. There is no limit to the number of GROUPS or USERS created.
NOTE: USERS may also belong to more than one GROUP (with different passwords for each GROUP) if company roles warrant.
