The Security tab enables agencies to authorize which users can control warehouse inventories or pull assets from a warehouse for a work order. The tab displays a list of employees from the Work Flow Setup > Employees module and their permissions for the current warehouse.
Note: This feature works only when the Use Parts Warehouse Security option is enabled via the Work Options > Parts Integration tab.
Available Permissions
Full Access
Gives a user full control over a Warehouse. The user can update a Warehouse record in the Warehouse module and disperse parts to work orders.
WO Only
Allows the user to only access the warehouse through the Work Order modules. The user can disperse parts to a work order and return them to the warehouse, but they cannot access the Warehouse record within the Warehouse module.
Note: If a user doesn't have one of these permissions, he or she cannot use the warehouse for any purpose.
