Permissions are a bit tricky at first....
Basically the concept goes like this :
1) You create access groups, with objects and menus.
2) You associate users to these access groups.
Now, for the tricky part....if you create a new access group, all the
users who are not associated to this group won't have permissions to
the related objects ! (including "admin" :-) ).
That's why at the moment you create an access group for pharmacist or
doctor, the user "admin" won't see the menus ...
You need to include the administrator in the list of the newly created group.
3) You have a lot of permissions because if the access group for an
specific model hasn't been created, everybody has access to it. So you
need to create the access group and assign it to a list of users.
Then, at that point, only the users assigned to that group will be
able to access the models within it, with the permissions given for
the models and fields.
Please let me know if this helps. Once you do it, you will see that is
logical :-)
Ronald, we should include this chapter also :-)
BTW, we talked about this a while ago, but let me ask. Should we have
these user profles in the default configuration for every new database
, or should it be part of the implementation process, or just reside
in the demo DB ?
