Discontinuation of Basic Access Control for Sage VIP Classic and Premier

Access to all the different payroll screens, and the printing of reports, is controlled by Operator Passwords as defined in your company's Access Control.

For each Password the Access Rights to the different screens in the System must be specified. An operator may be assigned Full Rights, View Only Rights, or No Access Rights to a screen or area of the System, and report printing is controlled by security levels.

 

Basic Access Control allows you to set up passwords for five operators, and to specify which areas of the System may be accessed by each of these operators.

Advanced Access Control allows you to specify unique passwords for many different operators in each Company. For additional security you may also assign a Zone Code to each employee, and operators may only access employees in the zones to which they have access.

Due to future software requirements, we will be removing the Basic Access Control option from the payroll soon.

 

If you are currently making use of Basic Access Control, we encourage you to set up Advanced Access Control before the system forces you to make the change.
