You can define profiles in the system using the profile configuration tool. Profiles are a set of access roles (For example – Store Manager profile). Behind the scenes, Roles include security points, which define the permissions associated with the role. 

Select the required profile from the Profiles column, and add business roles to, or remove them from the profile.

Security in MT-POS is permission based. 

A Role is the set of permissions needed for executing a system autonomic operation (I.E., ring a retail sale), or a set of autonomic operations. All the required security points for the operation are included in the business role.

Select the 'Profile Management' page to select which roles are included in profile.


Entry Point:

Main Application menu > Settings > User Management > Profile Management
