This field shows the first year percentage when the
Yearly Percentage field is further restricted by the
First Year Factor field for the first year only.

The values in the fields in this island will be used as default values for Dimensions when you create a new asset that belongs to this asset group. This makes it easier and less error-prone to create new assets. See the Assets windows for more information about dimensions on an asset.
Access Level Island
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Access Level
|
In this field, you can specify the name and description of an access level. You only have access to the current asset group if you have been assigned to this level or a level above this in the User Access Levels window. This access control ensures that when working with, for instance, an asset, you can only enter an asset group to which you have access, and you can only see the asset groups to which you have access. Please note that this access control model only applies if the standard access control configuration has not been changed in your Maconomy system. If it has, the access to asset groups may depend on other factors. For further information about the standard access control configuration and access control in a multi-company model, please see “Introduction to the Access Control System” in the Set-Up module. If no access level is specified, all users have access to the current asset groups.
