A new permission "Manage backup users" has been added to enable managing backup users in AP Automation and Procurement.
This new permission is necessary because Basware Admin's centralized user management system currently lacks functionality to manage backup users in AP Automation and Procurement. Additionally, AP clerks need to be able to set backup users for absent colleagues to prevent delays in the invoice process due to absences.
When granted this new permission, users can manage backup users in AP Automation and Procurement even if they do not have the "Manage users" permission. They can view other user data in read-only mode but can modify only the backup periods. Backup periods can also be modified with the "Manage users" administrative permission, as previously allowed.
