Manage Function Profiles

Function Profiles control the level of access to balanceTRAK functions (by module) for each group of users. Under the Function Profiles tab, a list of Program Modules, Functions, and Access Levels displays.

Here are the typical balanceTRAK Access Levels: •Full Access •Read-Only •No Access

Select an existing Profile from the upper drop-down. A check mark will indicate whether the Profile is a: Default Profile (or you may select to make one Profile the default). To edit an existing Function Profile, click the adjacent [Edit] button, and select a new Access Level for one or more functions.

Once established, these profiles can be assigned to users through the User Management screen (as described above).
