Hi, I am trying to configure OFBiz to be used by the final client. He is new to the application and, at the beginning, only needs few operations on catalogs, orders and facilities.
I have created a user security group with permissions to only access to Catalog, Order and Facility applications so that all other applications can only be accessed by the OFBiz administrator. Now I am wondering how to hide some of the so many menu commands and fields that he has still available in the three applications he has access to. I do not like the option to change the application commenting out things because than they will be not available to the admin itself and if needed at a later time a new change in the software is needed. I think that the best would be a more granular permissions that could affect the applications menu (hiding/showing options and of course disabling the relative requests). In this way new commands could be experimented on a different test user that will have the new permission enabled and then it could be activated on the standard user. An example of what I would not to be visible to the "standard user" could be options like "Agreements","Accounts","Payment types","Maintenance","Meters" etc. for the product screen menu. Is there some mechanism I am not aware of to do this? If not is any plan or idea to do this so that may be I could try to start doing what I need in a way that I could contribute back to the community? Many thanks, -Bruno
