      1. Provide the required Module Rights either at the user, or the group level if one exists.

   2. Within Security in Veslink, provide permissions and form access as required, then select Restrict Vessel Access and only provide access to the operating vessel.

   3. The hidden config flag CFGEnabledVesselSecurity could be set to Y too. However, this can cause latency issues for all users in the system if their vessel list is greater than 15,000 vessels.  

   Open Incognito window to test logging-in 

Note: Within VIP, Forms Object Rights only displays once the Veslink account has been created. Also, if using Form Groups then a user can be provided access to all Forms negating the need to only select applicable forms in two locations.

Finally, to test the user account log in, open an Incognito window and sign in via veslink.com.
