Entity Info

This information is only for display purposes and will be disabled for editing. The data shown includes: the name of the entity Owner and the currency of the entity.

Permissions

Use the checkboxes to allow users to have access to certain pages. The permissions available to a user are the same as those possessed by the entity's owner. The creator of the user cannot give permissions that they do not have themselves. These permissions will affect the user's access to the system. Use the Select/Unselect All checkbox to select or deselect multiple items at once.

Network Permissions

Users are granted Network Permissions which allow them to view certain branches of the network. This affects the data they see in reports and User Management lists. The creator cannot give permissions beyond those they possess themselves. The list is ordered in a hierarchical view (Head Office > Master Agents > Agents) based on the linked entity owner permissions. For example, if the linked entity owner is a Master Agent, they will only be able to view Master Agents and Agents linked to them.
