TransAct provides four different levels of security.
Figure 16. Security Levels
Level 3 is the Administrator level. Only the administrator can add or delete users and reset passwords.
TransAct installs an “admin” login assigned to the administrator level that is not password protected.
Since the administrator level has access to everything, it should be password protected. After
installation, use the
User Table to assign a password to the admin user.
Level 2 is the Supervisor level. The supervisor level allows access to everything in the TransAct program
except Logins . This level is not allowed to add or delete users, or reset passwords. Only the administrator
level is allowed to change the Next Ticket, Next Receipt , and Next Statement numbers.
Level 1 is the Operator level. The operator is given access to read all tables but is not allowed to modify
information in the tables. From the Weigh form, an operator can update and add tares using the weight
on the scale, they are not permitted to modify tare weights by typing in a value. The operator level also
allows an operator to view
Quick Scan results, run reports, and perform the backup and restore Utilities.
Level 0 is the Guest level. A guest is only allowed to view the tables (e.g. Customer Accounts,
Categories, and Permits) in the program. They are not permitted to edit tables, view transactions, or
create transactions.
