The Security function controls access to the application itself and to individual functions within the application.
- The assignment of permissions and user rights is administered and maintained by the client (not Valiant).
- An authorized user can create/edit user logins and passwords for other users.
- Specific permissions can be assigned to an individual user or category of users.
- Vision™ has three (3) user categories: USER, DEFAULT and SUPERUSER.
All individual Vision™ users must be designated a User or Superuser.
SUPERUSER
- This category is created by Valiant.
- Generally assigned to those individuals who will be assigned the responsibility of the organization,
typically the System Administrator. - Has full security rights and privileges to all Levels, Divisions and application functions.
- Can create security rights and restrictions for all other user categories.
- Users cannot create a Superuser.
DEFAULT
- Special user category designed to create Permission Groups – from which individual users may be
assigned. - Default is only used to create the Permission Group – individual users cannot be assigned a Default.
- Avoids repetitive steps when creating a group of new users with identical security permissions.
USER
Individual employees are assigned, either with individually selected Division and Permission rights or by
Permission Groups (i.e. Default).
