In InvoiceOcean, it is possible to restrict the visibility of the client database for employees with the roles of User and Accountant, while the same client database remains accessible to the Account Owner and Administrators. To activate the client visibility restriction feature, follow these steps:
- Go to: Settings > Account Settings > Configuration > Users and Privileges
- Check the checkbox next to Client restriction
- Save the settings by clicking the Save button at the bottom of the page
After activating this feature, the client database will remain visible to the Account owner and Administrator. However, employees with the roles of User and Accountant will see the message: You currently have no clients.
Options include:
- Only users with full access: These clients are visible in the Client database only to the Account Owner and Administrator.
- All users: These clients are visible in the Client database to the Account Owner, Administrator, Accountant, and User.
- Specific departments: For example, test 3 is a department name in our sample company. If you want a client to be assigned exclusively to Company A (e.g, test3), you can assign them here. Employees with the User role who are assigned to specific departments (e.g., Company A - test3) will not see clients assigned to other departments.
