8.1.2. User and Group Permissions
User Permissions
Individual user permissions can be set for each user of your site. Keep in mind that permissions set for a group are inherited by each member of that group. To avoid having to set individual permissions for every user of your site, set the primary set of permissions for a group of like users then add users to that group. If a particular user in the group needs a few extra or specific permission settings, you can edit the individual user permissions to add functionality to the specific user.
You have the ability to set permissions for each individual user in your site. Clicking on the Permissions tab displays all the categories of where permissions can be set.

To set the permissions for an individual user, click on the category to open the details for that category. Select the desired permissions for the user by checking the permission option. After selecting your permission settings you can click on the category again to hide the permission details. Be sure to save your settings by clicking on the Save Permissions button.

You can change user permissions at any time and permissions can be added or removed whenever necessary to meet your users needs.
Permissions are applied to the users session during the login process. If you make permission settings while a user is logged into DealerChoice, the permission updates will not take affect until the user logs in again.
Group Permissions
The Group Permissions detail is exactly the same as the individual permissions detail. The only difference is that you are setting the permissions for the group and all members of the group will have the permissions set here.

If a member of a group needs additional permissions settings that you don't want to issue to the entire group, edit the individual users permission settings and add the extra permissions only to the user that needs them.
