Restriction Groups

Form ID: (SM201030)

By using this form, you can create restriction groups for managing the visibility of system entities, or modify existing restriction groups by adding or removing system entities. For more information about restriction groups, see Restriction Groups in MYOB Advanced.

Note: For simplicity, we recommend that you create restriction groups for use in specific modules by using the appropriate forms in the Manage section of the Row-Level Security module.
