      Create User - User Permissions Panel NUMBERED

      1. Permission Filter
        Begin typing here to filter the list of permissions by the text entered. This will search through all sub-levels of permissions, even those that are not currently visible. For example, searching for “counter” will return the “Utilities” permission, since “Counter Utilities” is a sub-level of that permission.
      2. Permissions List
        Each permission is displayed in its own row. Permissions are organized into a hierarchy, with broader permissions at the top level containing sub-levels of increasing granularity. Click the down arrow to the left of a permission’s name to expand its sub-levels; click the up arrow to the left of an expanded category to collapse it.
      3. Advanced Toggle
        Use this to switch the permission list between Simplified View and Advanced View. These views present the same permission information in different ways: Advanced View (toggle enabled) displays permissions in a style similar to the Security Role Permissions utility in Texada SRM, while Simplified View (toggle disabled) provides a more streamlined list. See “About User Roles and Permissions - Simplified View and Advanced View” for more information.
      4. Role Manager
        Click to open the Role Manager menu. See “The Role Manager” for more information.
      5. Permissions by Division
        The permissions held by the User for each of their active Divisions are displayed here. For each Division selected in the Division and Location Access panel, a column corresponding to that Division will be added to the table. Use the drop-down list below each Division’s name to select the User’s Role(s) for that Division. Note that the permissions granted by User Roles are additive, and that the permissions displayed in the column below each Division represent the sum of the permissions granted by the selected Roles. See “About User Roles and Permissions” for more information.
