What are operator groups?

In SunSystems, security permissions are controlled at the operator group level. When you define operators in User Manager, you must assign the operator to a group of users who require similar security access to the system. For example, you could define one operator group for all accounts receivable clerks. Operator groups are defined by clicking the Groups tab in User Manager, selecting the group named SunSystems Users, then clicking the Add Group icon in the toolbar.

Operator groups can be associated to:

• Menu files to control which tools, functions and forms are available.
• Data access groups to control access to individual records.
• Miscellaneous permissions to control access to specific types of data such as open periods, open dates and account types.
• Form permissions to control which actions are available.
