Did you know that in SAP Business One version 10, we can provide more specific authorization on each tab in the item master data and Business Partner Master Data. So if the user does not have authorization for a tab, then the tab will be hidden automatically, or if only given read-only authorization, then the user can only see without being able to change the contents of that tab.
The ways that can be done to set the authorization per tab are as follows:
