This How-to covers creating different security groups within Prevail.
Security Groups are what Prevail uses to determine who within your firm has access to which matters. Each matter must have a security group assigned to it. Each user may have a different role and level of access within each security group. Furthermore, you can allow for exceptions to the security group for a particular matter.
Note: If none of your team members need to be kept from viewing any matters, then you’ll only have one security group, which is the Default Group which already exists within the system.

Click Administration > Security/Group Setup. The following window will appear.
Click ‘Add’ on the left to create a new group.
Give the Group a name.
To attach a user to the group.
Click ‘Attach to Group’.
Select the user you want to add using the User drop-down menu.
Choose the role that the user will play in the Group with the Action menu.
Click ‘Save’.
Note: If there aren’t any users to select, you need to setup the user under Administration > Employee Setup before their name will appear.
Repeat this process for all members and groups.
In the bottom left hand corner, Security/Group Setup window, there is a 'Security' tab. This is where you can add, edit, or delete employee types. These settings control access to certain tabs and functions within Prevail.
Note: In the Prevail Security Information section, there are three access levels available for each employee. These are-
No Access– the tab or function would not display at all for the employee type
View Only– the tab would display for the employee type, but the user would not be able to add, delete, or modify the data on that tab in any way.
Add, Edit, Delete, and View – the employee type would have full access to the tab or function.
