Overview
What are roles and permissions in AutoSmart?
Roles and permissions decide what each user can see, edit and approve. In AutoSmart you set up your brands, regions and outlets once, give users a ready-made or custom role, limit their view by brand, location or audit programme, and let them sign in with single sign-on.
