Access Groups Users Multiple Databases
How to PDF document #386 on System Security
System Security sets up the User registration license consisting of the protected Company name that prints on all reports, the unit limit, and which features (network, commercial, maintenance) are enabled. After registration the database is used to establish user security authorization parameters that restrict access to selected modules and functions. This is done by setting up and assigning Access Groups to a User. A User’s access to functions and ability to post transactions can be limited by setting transaction posting parameters for that User.
Access to System Security requires a password. The initial password is provided by Customer Support when you register the software. At that time (and from then on) you can, at your discretion, change the system security password.
Prior to registration it is not necessary to enter a User Name or Password to get into the PROMAS Landmaster databases (Residential Demonstration, Practice Demonstration). When you call to register you will be provided with a password to get into the System Security database and assisted thru the process of entering your protected company name, unit limit and identify the options you will have available.
After entering the registration parameters you can set up your user ID’s, passwords and file security for your users. Once you register, a user name and password is required.
Each database can be set up so that the security parameters are different.
Using the security features is optional. If you want to either have a record of who posted each transaction or limit access to some functions depending on the user, you must set up security.
