Acumatica Platform team is looking into ways to give non-admin users the ability to build their own GIs and Reports, while administrators control which data they can access. For example, a finance analyst building expense reports without ever seeing what employees are paid.

We would love to hear your thoughts by commenting below to help us understand what level of control matters to your organization and why.

Option B

 

 

Question 2: Select a Poll answer below

Your analyst has access to the Payroll table — but should every field be accessible to them?
