The security model used by the QAD CRM system controls who can access the system and defines the actions that users defined in the system can perform.

Using system security features, you can configure system login behavior, create and maintain users, teams (roles), and permission groups, and specify user access to business units. Using a combination of these security-related features, you can control user access to system menus and functions.

Using login security features, you can secure your system from unauthorized users. You can also configure additional types of security that provide enhanced protection for individual database records.
