Permissions Expander
Manages user permissions precisely and in detail: if you are the manager in charge, or the user who has all permissions, you can go further in setting the permissions of the other users.
Purpose of the Permissions Expander System
When a user is given the "Prevent" level on the permission to view cards, this may hinder their work. In such cases, you can make an exception for the cards related to their tasks, so they can view them without disrupting their work.
In another scenario, alameen ERP may contain a large number of cards (materials, customers...), all belonging to one establishment, such as a shopping center with several departments.
In this case, showing the material cards to all users would be confusing and impractical: the accountant of the foodstuffs department does not need to view the cards of the clothes department, for example.
So the permissions expander system lets you set which cards each user can view according to the department they work in, which makes things clearer and gives easy access to the relevant information only.
