Assigning Privileges to a Khameleon User



User Privileges control what a user can do once they enter the screens to which they have been granted access.

Privileges are segmented by module in tabs which display only for the modules purchased in a client deployment of Khameleon.  Most privileges are checkbox based, where the value is checked to grant this privilege to the respective user.  For Privileges which may control more than a single function within the application, a hint text is provided in the lower left hand corner to give a more comprehensive description of the Privilege.

Other privileges may be threshold based, where a dollar amount can be entered to limit the upper value of a certain transaction that a user can process before approval is required.
