Hey accounting superheroes! 🦸‍♂️🦸‍♀️

Is your desk a battleground of permission requests, data bottlenecks, and “Who deleted this file?!” mysteries? Breathe out and welcome to the golden age of granular permissions in Suvit.

Whether you’re running a high-octane CA practice or managing a multi-company accounting squad, Suvit transforms chaos into clarity with laser-sharp access controls, all while keeping you blazing fast (and totally audit-ready).

In this jam-packed guide, full of actionable walkthroughs, snippets, and real-world tips, we’ll show you how to run a tighter, smarter, safer accounting ship.

If “multi-user workflows” ever sounded like herding caffeinated cats, this is for you. Let’s dig deep and level up your accounting automation game with Suvit!

What Are Granular Permissions, Really? (And Why They Matter in 2025)

Accountants, auditors, tax pros, your work is all about trust. But hand out blanket access, and it’s like giving everyone your house keys. Suvit’s granular permissions mean:

  • Only the right people see the right data, every single time.
  • No more accidental leaks, unapproved edits, or “oops” moments.
  • A transparent record of each activity, boosting accountability.
  • Seamless onboarding, offboarding, and role transitions without the chaos of permission sprawl.

Step 1: Creating User Accounts in Suvit, Your Team, Your Way 🏗️

Supercharge your team by setting up individual user accounts for everyone:

  • Log in as the primary user (think: admin powers activated).
  • Go to [User Management]: add each team member with their email, phone, and a strong password.
  • Assign users to one (or several) companies.
  • Every user gets their own credentials. Say goodbye to “shared things” forever!

Step 2: Personalized Roles, Because “One Size Fits None” 👥

Time for some real magic: personalized roles. Suvit lets you toss out generic “admin” and “user” roles for good. Instead, design exactly the access someone needs:

  • Head to the Roles section: create roles like “GST Maestro,” “Data Entry Ace,” or “Partner: Audit Only.”
  • Assign module-level permissions: Grant full access to GST, restrict document view, and permit uploads for one firm but not the other; whatever suits your structure.
  • Fine-tune roles by combining read, write, edit, or restricted actions per module, per user.

Step 3: Assigning, Changing, and Revoking Access, Stay Agile! 🔄

Teams evolve. People move up (or out). With Suvit, you can:

  • Instantly upgrade, limit, or revoke permissions for any user in seconds.
  • Add or remove access to modules like GST, TDS, banking, or document automation at the click of a button.
  • Assign new roles as business needs shift (e.g., during tax season or M&A).

No more “Oh no, the intern archived client records!” moments. Stay fast, flexible, and on top of every change.

Step 4: Secondary User Reports & The Power of Activity Logs 🕵️‍♀️🔎

Let transparency reign:

Secondary User Reports:

Explore who did what and when. See contributions by user, time stamps, exported docs, and workflow stats.

Activity Log:

The Sherlock Holmes of accounting teams. Every login, upload, edit, or assignment is tracked; no more guesswork, just the receipts.

Catch process bottlenecks, ensure compliance, and spot unusual activity before it becomes an issue.

Step 5: Real-World Scenarios: Mapping Permissions to Workflows

Picture this:

  • A GST Specialist can only access GST returns for Company A, not B or C.
  • Junior Accountant uploads bank statements, but can’t view payroll.
  • The auditor receives view-only access (with a downloadable audit trail), but edits remain locked down.

Map permissions to fundamental job roles; not just names. The result? Fewer mistakes, bulletproof compliance, and a happier, less-stressed team.

Step 6: Best Practices for Multi-User Workflow Bliss 🎓

  • Onboarding and Offboarding:

Always update permissions as staff join or leave. Pro tip: Set a checklist for permission review.

  • Quarterly Permission Audits:

Schedule it. Review roles to see if any extra access is still in place. Prune what you don’t need.

  • Job Rotation & Coverage:

Utilize custom roles for temporary coverage, then easily revert access with a single click.

Step 7: Advanced Suvit Features, Going Beyond the Basics 🚀

  • Permission Templates: Duplicate roles or build from best practices, so no one starts from scratch.
  • Exportable Reports: Generate access and activity logs for auditors or regulatory review in a snap.
  • Power Pairing: Combine activity logs with secondary user reports for root-cause analysis and streamlined compliance documentation.

Step 8: Security, Trust, and Compliance: Run a Tighter Ship ⚓

Granular permissions aren’t just a box to tick; they build trust with clients, boost your audit-readiness score, and protect your team from both internal mishaps and external threats. Suvit’s access framework even supports:

  • End-to-end encryption.
  • Immutable audit trails.
  • Role-based announcements and mass updates for workflow changes.

Stay compliant, agile, and growth-ready, no matter your firm size or structure.
