Purpose

The System allows administrative users to not only grant additional users access to specific file systems, but also allows them to customize the actions they are allowed to perform to the file systems they are assigned. Some Permissions can be set up that allows users to add, delete and edit the nodes within the system. Other users can be set up to have access to nothing other than the billing features. The many options that can be selected individually allows admins to ensure users that they set up can only perform the actions they grant them. Permissions can be configured individually under the Permissions subtab, they can be applied when creating new Roles under the Roles subtab, or can be added or removed when editing user accounts.
