SUB-ARTICLE under Access management in Sapera. Describes the permissions in the
"UI Permissions" category. Status: DRAFT pending approval.
This article covers a few minor user-interface permissions — input method settings (keyboard/on-screen keyboard) and access to setting up a user's individual permissions.
You assign these permissions in Financial under Security → Groups → select a group → Permissions (set Allow/Deny per permission).
Controls whether the user may change their personal input method setting (e.g. keyboard/on-screen keyboard), which follows the individual user.
If the permission is denied, the control for changing the setting is disabled in the user interface.
This is a user-interface setting: it controls whether the option is available.
As above, but for the input method setting that follows the device (e.g. a specific POS terminal) rather than the individual user.
If the permission is denied, the control for changing the device's setting is disabled in the user interface.
Controls whether the section for setting up a user's individual permissions is shown on the user-edit screen — that is, whether you can configure another user's personal permissions.
If the permission is denied, the section is hidden, so you cannot set up the individual user's individual permissions.
Note: This permission is a user-interface control — it controls whether the section is shown. Use it to keep the setup out of sight for employees who should not work with individual permissions.
The two input method permissions apply to the individual user and the individual device respectively — they are separate.
By default everyone (the Everyone group) has both input method permissions.
Allow vs. Deny: An explicit Deny wins over an inherited Allow.
