#Who can do this

Super Admin and other superuser accounts can always see and do everything, regardless of this list. For everyone else, these are the standard roles that have been granted a permission here in this system’s current setup — an organisation can add, remove or customise roles and their permissions, so treat this as an example, not a guarantee.

#About this guide

Generated from BSuit’s data model on the date shown under “Seen on a running system”. Field names, types and lengths come from the model itself. References are inferred from field names (a field called “Ledger Id” is treated as pointing to Ledger); the model does not declare relationships, so an inferred link can occasionally be wrong or missing.
