Logging In as another User

I currently have the super permission in BC. I want to log in as another user so I can see what they see and make sure they only have access to certain items. For example, a lot of the users should not have access to our bank statements. Is there a way I can do this?
 
Thank you!

    Here’s what I would do: take your user or create a new test user, assign the permissions you deem appropriate as for the user you need to replicate, this way you can perform all the necessary checks

    Whether it is the On-Pre version or the Cloud version, this requires the user's ID and password.
    You cannot log in as this user without the account information.
    However, if you are an administrator, you can see all the effective permissions for the user.
    For exmaple,
     
    Hope this can give you some hints.
    Thanks.

    You have two options:
     
    1. Assign yourself the same permissions as the user you want to check, and then remove the super permissions. When you are done, another user with super needs to give you super back.
     
    2. Have a 2nd account. As a Partner that can access a client's BC with delegated admin this works great. However, if you're an end user this doesn't really work as a 2nd account will consume an additional BC license.
