System User Management (Administrators)

 On the system, all Buyers/Managers, Super Users and Financial Controllers are collectively known as System ‘Users’ – their different ‘roles’ are defined by their privilege settings. Please refer to the document ‘User and Workflow Configuration’ for details. If you do not have access to this document please contact Claritum Support.
