Assign employee permission exceptions
When to use this procedure
Follow the steps below to assign exception access to any secured items for an employee.
Example of use
If an entire menu is marked with no access for a particular group, individual employees in that group cannot be given access to any item on that menu. For example, if the Sales group does not have access to the Reverse Menu, Andrew Garcia cannot be given access to the Reverse Individual Invoice item. So, instead of marking access to None for the Reverse Menu for the Sales group, you would mark the access as Full for the Reverse Menu and set the access to None for the individual options on that menu. You would then set the Reverse Individual Invoice permission access to Full for Andrew Garcia.
Steps to complete
- On the Admin menu, point to Employee/Security and click Employee/Groups. The Employee/Group Administration window displays.
- Highlight the name of the employee for whom you want to assign exception access to a secured item and click Properties. The Employee Properties window displays.
- Click the Permission Exceptions tab.
- Click Add Item. The Select a Secured Item window displays.
- Navigate to and highlight the secured item for which you want to assign exception access.
- Click OK. The item is added to the Secured Item grid on the Employee Properties window.
- Select the exception access level in the Access column.
- Click Save.
Did you know? To remove exception access to a secured item, highlight it in the Secured Item grid on the Permission Exceptions tab and click Delete Item. The employee's access to that secured item will revert to the access level to the item in his/her assigned groups.
