In the following example of how to give a database login a role,
you will give the superuser the appropriate permissions.
To Give a Database Login a Role:
Click Tools, Security, Database Logins and the Database Logins window appears. Make sure
that the current record symbol on the left side of the window is
next to the login of the user to whom you want to assign this
role.
Click Roles at the bottom of
the window. The Roles window
for this database login appears. This window lists the roles that
this user has been given.
In the Role ID field, click
the AssistButton . The Roles window appears listing the standard
roles that come with the program.
Select the role that you want to give to this database login and
click OK.
You can give each user one or more roles as needed by following
this procedure.
As a default, permissions apply to all the companies in the
database but they can be restricted to a particular company. To do
this, enter the name of the company (or use the AssistButton
in the Company field on the right side of the
window). For permissions to apply to several companies, you must
set up one line per company (each line starting with the same role
ID). If you specify that the permissions a user has only apply to a
particular company in the database, the user in question will only
be able to see that company.

roles that come with the program.
