Configuring Permissions for the EMC

You can set user permissions for the EMC modules. The privileges define the actions which users linked to the role can perform throughout EMC.

1. Select the Enterprise level, click Configuration, and then click Roles.
2. Double-click the record of the role for which to set user permissions (for example, administrator, manager or server).
3. Click the EMC Modules tab.
4. Select the appropriate module permission options for the user role. You can grant user permissions for the following module actions:

   • View: Open and view a module. If you allow a user to Edit, Add, or Delete, you must also grant View access (otherwise the user cannot open the module).

   • Edit: Update fields or records within a module.

   • Add: Add records to a module.

   • Delete: Delete records from a module.

   • Add Override: Override records within a module.

   • Allow Duplicate Obj#: Add menu item records where existing records with the same number exist elsewhere in the Enterprise.

   • Allow Duplicate Name: Add records where existing records with the same name exist elsewhere in the Enterprise.

   To grant access for all module actions, select All Modules from the Global Access section for each action. The All Modules option allows you to easily configure all permissions for the user for every module without individually selecting each option. Selecting All Modules also allows the user to access new modules that become available in future Simphony versions. Oracle Hospitality recommends granting All Modules permission for an administrator role.

5. Click the Actions tab.
6. Select the appropriate action permissions for the role.

   To grant access to perform all actions, select All Actions from the Global Access section. Selecting All Actions also allows the user to perform new actions that become available in future Simphony versions. Oracle Hospitality recommends granting All Actions permission for an administrator type of role.

7. Click Save.
