Users

Users on the left, one user's rights on the right. A user inherits the access levels of every group they belong to, and an override on the user wins over that inheritance.

Group memberships​

Which groups the user belongs to. They are managed in SAP Business One — the screen says so — and a user in no group says This user does not belong to any group.

Permission overrides​

Grant or deny individual permissions on top of what the user inherits from their groups. Each permission is set to:

FieldDescription
GrantGive this user the permission, whatever their groups say.
InheritTake whatever the groups give — the default.
DenyRefuse it to this user, whatever their groups say.

The permissions the user already has through a group are marked as inherited, so an override is always visible as a deliberate departure.

caution

A SAP superuser bypasses every permission check. The screen shows a banner saying so on such a user, and nothing configured here changes it.

Examples​

Somebody sees a screen you thought you had closed. Check the three levels in order: the user's own override, then every group they belong to, then whether they are a superuser. A single group granting Read is enough — inheritance is a union, not an intersection.

Group memberships that will not change. Membership comes from SAP Business One. To move somebody between groups, do it there; this screen will follow.
