MoversSuite Administration (web) > User Setup > Security Profile

 

Security Profiles link modules of functionality to branches of services.  Users assigned to a profile that does not include a certain module or branch will not be granted access to orders or functionality associated to the particular module or branch.

 

Use the table below to create Security Profile records that will be assigned to personnel within MoversSuite Administration (web)  > User Setup > Personnel > User Setup > Security Profile.  View the Security Profile Detail report for a complete list of established security profile modules along with the branch and access type they are assigned to.

 

Security Profile Fields

Description

Module

Select a Module from the provided list to be assigned to the profile.  Standard modules are listed within the Standard MoversSuite Modules section.

A Module is the area of functionality to be accessed by users assigned to this Security Profile.

Branch

Select a Branch from the provided list to be assigned to the profile.  Users assigned to the selected Branch will have access to the Module. 

Since each order in MoversSuite must be assigned to a branch, the branch assigned to the profile controls which orders a user can access for the selected module.

Refer to Personnel Setup for details on assigning branches to personnel.

Access Type

Select Full to grant users the ability to add, edit, and delete records and perform other related functionality within the Module for orders linked to the specified Branch.

Select Read Only to limit users to viewing data within the Module for orders linked to the specified Branch.

Manager flag

Setting this flag will grant additional privileges to users assigned to this profile. 

When the flag is set for the Order Information module, the users will be granted access to the Account Profile Management interface.  See the Security Profile Settings for Account Profiles for more information.

When the flag is set for Order Information and Revenue Entry modules, these users will be able to override the Invoice Requirement value set within the MoversSuite > Billing Information screen.  Manger flag set for Revenue Entry will also allow clerks to change the Customer number even if invoices have not been void and revenue has not been reversed.

Fields appearing in red are required when adding new records.

 

Tip: 

MoversSuite suggests granting coordinator and dispatcher profiles the ability to view (Access Type of Read Only) both Local Dispatch and Long Distance Dispatch modules for all branches (locations).   This is to ensure that communication is not disrupted across locations.
