Security role permissions

As part of the Multi-Team Environments feature, a number of changes have been made to existing security role permissions. Some permissions have been added whilst others have been updated or reassigned. Following an upgrade from versions prior to 6.3, all existing users maintain the access rights that their role currently provides.

Due to the increased granularity introduced by Multi-Team Environments, it is recommended that Security role permissions are reviewed to ensure that all users have only the permissions they require.
