Two Types of Clearance

There are two types of clearance: the account clearance assigned when the account is created, and the session clearance. When an employee logs into the system, he or she specifies a session clearance that is in effect for the time between login and logout. The session clearance must be within the account's clearance. (See the following section below and "Specifying the Session Clearance" for more about the session clearance.)
