List of all entities in a security role

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 170

Hello there,

Defining security roles, we realized there are a lot of entities we really don´t know what are they and where are they used.

Does anyone know where can I find the detail of each entity or option available among all tabs of the security role configuration?

This will be much appreciated.

Thank you.

    Hi ,

    This is very good approach that you want to know the all entities and privileges. Apart from that few things you need to consider before configure  new Security roles -

    - Don't create new security role from scratch.

    - Always create Security role by copying from another existing security role which has provided by MS by default.

    - Let say an example you want to give a user minimum privilege in that case  select "Salesperson" security role and in the top under more action click "Copy Role" . If you want to give most of the entity  access you can create copy of "System administrator" role and remove some entity access which you don't need form the new  role.

    Hope this helps.
