Object Rights
Object Rights can be assigned at two different levels:

By object: An individual company, vessel type, vessel, or pool.
For example, you can assign a group or a user different rights to different vessel types.

Priorities for Users with Conflicting Rights
Rights have priorities to determine which right applies if a user either has individual rights that conflict with group rights or is a member of more than one group, and the groups have different rights. The order is:

However, please note that, unless explicitly denied, Read Only users should still have the ability to create/edit/delete analytical views of data as the Report Designer reports are not considered to be “data” but means to view the data.
Reporting on User Rights
You can create a Module Access Report in the Report Designer, which shows a summary of Module Rights by user; a similar report can be created for object rights. Download the example report definition from Example Reports - Report Designer.

Enable Company Security | Set company-based permissions for each user or group on the Object Rights tab in Security, under Company. Permissions apply where needed to prevent users from editing or seeing various items associated with any restricted companies. | Use Contract Company | If enabled, displays Company as a required field on the Voyage Fixture, Time Charter, and Voyage. If LOB is enabled, this field will also be required. Note that this flag enables strict company matching (that is, sale and purchase companies must match) for the TDE. This flag is almost always enabled when company-based security (CFGEnableCompanySecurity) is in use, as it requires the Company Code to be specified in records before the user can save. A warning message will appear if an invoice is issued in which they do not match. | Require Company Match for Invoice | When enabled and CFGUseContractCompany is also enabled, the contract company must match the fixture company to approve or post invoices. | Invoice Approvals by Type | Specifies whether the control of invoice approval by type is enabled or not; adds an Invoice Approval Types control list to the Object Rights tab in Security, to grant users rights to approve specific types of invoices. On the Approve Invoices List and Transaction Summary, if a user does not have approval rights for an invoice type, the Review link will not be available for those invoices. | Invoice Postings by Type | Specifies whether the control of invoice posting by type is enabled or not; adds an Invoice Posting Types control list to the Object Rights tab in Security, to grant users rights to post specific types of invoices. On the Post Invoices List and Transaction Summary, if a user does not have posting rights for an invoice type, the Post link will not be available for those invoices. | Invoice Actualization by Type | Specifies whether the control of invoice actualization by type is enabled or not; adds an Invoice Actualization Types control list to the Object Rights tab in Security, to grant users rights to set specific types of invoices to Actual. | Invoice Reversals by Type | Specifies whether the control of invoice reversal by type is enabled or not. When enabled, on the Object Rights tab in Security, an Invoice Reversal Types control list is added to grant users rights to reverse specific types of invoices. | Journal Approval Needed | Enable specifying the number of approvals required for journal invoices . After an invoice has been approved, if it should be approved at least once more, its status is Partially Approved, and the last Approval User is in the Approval User column. An additional column, Approval User 2, is available in the Financials lists. | Approvals Mask | Bitflag: If accounting approvals are enabled, determines which are active. Possible values: The default value is 7=1+2+4. |
