In Sage Intacct, system administrators play a crucial role in updating user permissions, especially when new features are released or existing features are updated. It's important to remember that permissions for new features are undefined by default, requiring active assignment to relevant user roles or individual users. Here's a guide on updating permissions for the 2023 R3 release of Sage Intacct.
