User Permission Summaries

The User Permission Summaries is a table (v_a_md_user_permission) in the User Management System (UMS). This table displays the permissions for the resources assigned to one or more users.

  • By default, the view displays the permissions of the user currently logged into iTopia.

  • The information takes the form of a check list of the permissions available at the user level.
