- Quick access by clicking a user directly from the right panel
⚠️ Both options are limited to users within the logged-in user’s company/office permissions.
Required Security Role Actions:
To perform user searches and view user details, the following security permissions are required:
- Security > Users > Allow Search Users
- Security > Users > Allow User Tabs
Users Without "Search" Access:
- The Search button will be grayed out
- The User list panel will display "no data"
User Search Outside Allowed Companies
If a user attempts to search for another user outside of their assigned Companies and Offices, the system will display an error notification - 'no user found'
Use Case Recommendation:
This setting is ideal for organizations where role-based access and visibility across user records need to be strictly controlled based on company and office assignments.
