Permissions

Permissions enable users to perform a particular function or task within a specific area of Sage Intacct. For example, a user might have permission within the General Ledger to view financial reports but not to create, edit, or delete them.

A permission specifies a module, such as accountsPayable, a specific permission name, such as vendors, and the allowed access rights for that permission, such as list, view, add, and edit.

You use role-permission-assignment objects to assign permissions to roles.

List permissions

get/objects/company-config/permission

Returns a collection with a key, ID, and link for each permission. This operation is mostly for use in testing; use the query service to find permissions that meet certain criteria and specify the properties that are returned.
