Updating Account Level Security

Note: Account Level Security is only available if the Advanced Security module is installed.

If the System Administrator makes any of the following administrative changes, all users' Account Level Security is updated, regardless of whether or not the System Administrator's change directly affects them. Therefore, online users might need to close and reopen the form they are currently in. Users cannot be deleted if they are logged on the system. In general, we suggest that changes be made when most users are logged off the system, if possible. For more information, see the "When Security Changes Take Affect" topic.
