      Access Rights

      In this subsection, we delve into the fundamental concept of Access Rights, explaining its role in governing user permissions and access levels.

      A. Access rights, what is it?

      Understanding the details and complexities of Access Rights is paramount for enhancing the security and efficiency of your operations using the FL3XX system.

      The Access Rights with its Matrix serves as an invaluable resource, offering detailed insights into each access right. This tool is particularly useful for discerning subtle discrepancies between similar access rights and making informed decisions in scenarios where precise access configurations are imperative.

      Before delving into the specifics of Access Rights Matrix, it's beneficial to familiarize ourselves with the general groups of default access rights. These predefined access rights categories serve as foundational building blocks for configuring user permissions within your instance, aiding in the seamless setup and management of user access levels.

      B. Access rights types

      Within FL3XX, we provide a default set of access rights types, readily available to assign to your staff members. These access rights types empower users with access to specific pages or sections based on their respective roles and responsibilities. These predefined groups serve as a foundational framework, ensuring streamlined operations by granting appropriate access levels tailored to individual job assignments.

       

      Note:
      The access rights described below show the default setup offered by FL3XX. Specific configurations and customizations may vary depending on individual organizational requirements and system setups. It's advisable to consult with FL3XX support or system administrators for any tailored adjustments or additional access needs.
