Access Level Island

Field Description
Access Level In these fields, you can specify the name and description of an access level. You only have access to the current personnel requisition type if you have been assigned to the same or a higher level in the window User Access Levels. This means that on, for example, personnel requisitions, users can only specify personnel requisition types to which they have access. Furthermore, in this window, a given user can only see the personnel requisition types to which he or she has 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 personnel requisition types may depend on other factors. For more information about this, please see the section “Introduction to the Access Control System” in the Set-Up module.

If no access level is specified, all users have access to the current personnel requisition type.

A user only has access to see information about a course type if he has granted access to the access level in the window Access Levels in the Set-Up module to which the company is assigned or a superordinate level. In addition, the user must have access to the access level specified in the island Access Level in order to have access to the current course type. Please note that this access control model only applies if the standard access control configuration has not been changed in your Maconomy system.
