Use Cases / Context

The analytic line amount can reveal critical costs to some users who have access to those lines through various means, such as timesheets, project subscriptions, etc. While access to those timesheets is legitimate, the amount could reveal costs like employees’ salaries or operational margins.

Configuration

By itself, the module respects the original permissions. All internal users will be able to access the amounts of the analytic lines to which they have access.

To constrain which groups are allowed to see those costs, you can either:

• Add or remove users:

  1. Enable developer mode.

  2. Go to Settings > Users and locate the one you need.

  3. Set the Allow to read analytic costs checkbox on or off.

• Change the implied groups:

  1. Go to Settings > Users & Companies > Groups and choose which groups inherit this group.

Be aware that restricting the scope too much could lead to misbehavior in the regular processes involved in the analytic accounting workflows.
