Helpful Information
- In the top navigation, you can filter for a specific permission profile by clicking Profile and selecting it from the dropdown.
- When you upgrade users by giving them more rights, they can move, for example, from Regular to Heavy users. You have a specific number of light, regular, and heavy users that you can use according to your contract. If you reach your user limit, you might have to deactivate some users or contact your Customer Support Manager to extend the number of users per user profile.
