Custom Access Privilege
The access privilege types such as Admin Access, Full Access, Limited Access and Read Access contain standard functionalities and they cannot be customized for each individual user. Therefore, when a user has a specific access requirement that is not covered by the three available access privilege types, we can create a customized Access Privilege and provide exclusive functionalities as per the requirement of the user.
For example, we can create a unique access privilege type called Custom Access. This privilege type can be given access to special features or functionalities that user requires. These features will not be available in other privilege types such as Admin Access, Full Access, Limited Access and Read Access.
