# UI permissions

Minor user-interface permissions for input method and access to per-user permission setup.

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).

## The permissions

### Allow change user input method

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.
    

### Allow change device input method

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.
    

### Access user permission setup

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.

## Good to know

-   **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**.
