This is because there are some other objects relate to Purchase & Supplier modules example Stock Code, Tax Codes, Term, Projects and so on that the user can read them. Firstly, filter All module > Ctrl + A to high all objects > Click Grant. Then tick “Read”. Notice that other functions like Navigation, create and so on is unticked
9. Continue to filter Purchase module > Ctrl + A to high all objects > Click Grant. If you do not allow this user to delete, just click on delete button
10. Continue to set access right in Supplier module, repeat the same step after filter by Supplier
11. By using the same method of step no. 9, you can set the access right for viewing the report. First, click on “Reports” tab > Filter by Purchase > CTRL + A > Grant the access right. Note: The write function in reporting does not means to edit the records, it means when the user can filter the report or not.
Then continue to filter Supplier Reports and tick all.
