Company Permissions grid
Company	Displays the code that identifies the company.
Company Name	Displays the name of the company.
User Group Permissions	Choose the user group's permission to the company.
Division Permissions grid - Each row in the grid is a division for the company and the user group's permission for the division. A user group must have permissions to the company for the division to have permission to the division. Screens that don't contain division information are accessible. For example, posting groups are not associated with a division, so posting group screens and posting screens are not secured by division. The permissions may originate from the license or you may have set them. Full Access - Read/Write access to the division. No Access - No access to the division. To change the user group's permission to a single division, select in the User Settings field in the row for the division and select the new permission.

CAUTION: Certain screens display information for divisions even if the user does not have access to the division. For example, if a user has permissions to the Enter Customer Invoice screen, the user can view all distribution lines regardless of the division associated with each line. If you don't want the user to see this information, you will need to set the screens to No Access on the Functions Permissions tab. The following screens are not secured by division: Projects Print Contract Invoices Print Time & Material Invoices Project Document Forms Lien Notice and Release Forms Financial Balance Sheet (and the Balance Sheet widget) Bank Reconciliation Report Check Listing Report Check Register Consolidated Balance Sheet Customers Sales & Use Tax Report Customer Statements Vendors Print Vendor Payments Print Forms 1099-MISC Print Forms 1099-INT Print Forms 1099 Summary Report Print Forms T5018 Print Forms T5018 Summary Report PO Item Purchase History Report Employees Certified Payroll Data Export Certified Payroll Report Deduction Report EEO Report Employee Fringes Report Employee Withholding Report Employment Status Report Export Forms T4 Fringe Report Oregon WBF Quarterly Tax Report Pay Cycle Withholding Report Print Payroll Checks & Advices Payroll Current Earnings Statement Payroll Federal Earnings and Tax Report Payroll Federal Unemployment Tax Report Print Form 941 Print Form 941 - Schedule B Print Forms W-2 Print Forms W-2 Summary Report Payroll Historical Earning Statement Payroll Insurance Report - Detail Payroll Insurance Report - Summary Payroll Local Earnings and Tax by Month Payroll Local Earnings and Tax by Quarter Print Forms T4 Print Forms T4 Summary Report Record of Employment Union Fringes and Deductions
