About the System Permissions

This section explains the different Permissions used throughout the system. It defines:

  • What the purpose of each Permission is
  • The different areas that the Permissions affect
  • The dependencies that each Permission requires to function

Permission Administration Levels

Permissions have a level value which is known as an Administration Level. The Administration Level on a Permission determines which Profiles (and therefore Users) can use/view that Permission.

This is determined by giving the Permission a value from between 1 and 10. If a Permission has a level of 10, it can be seen by all Users who are at Administration Level 10 and lower but if a Permission has a level of 1, it can only be seen by Users who are at Administration Level 1.

In short: the lower the Administration Level, the more power the User has.
