System Privileges
System Privileges allow system administrators to grant or deny access to specific features on a site and user level.
-
Site-Level Privileges apply to users in the site, including supervisors and administrators. Default settings for new users are also set in Site-Level Privileges.
-
User-Level Privileges are applied on an individual user basis. Combined with the site-level privileges, user-level privileges will determine the user's effective privileges.
