Set delete permissions for users to ensure that only those authorized can perform these actions. This feature helps maintain data integrity and security by preventing unauthorized deletions that could disrupt operations or lead to data loss.

The different delete permissions determine which users can delete orders, stock documents, items, and contacts.

  • Users with default access have all delete permissions enabled.

There are 7 delete permissions, each for deleting different objects:

  1. Delete sales orders (includes quotes)

  2. Delete customers

  3. Delete manufacturing orders

  4. Delete purchase orders (includes outsourced purchase orders)

  5. Delete suppliers

  6. Delete stock documents (stock adjustments, stock transfers, and stocktakes)

  7. Delete and archive items (products and materials)

Enabling/Disabling permissions

To add or remove permissions from a user, click your name in the top right, choose Team, and click on the user.

Once you click on the username, a side panel will open where you can customize the permissions. Click on Workflows to see the different delete permissions, and check/uncheck them to enable/disable them.

Permissions are initially set when a user is invited to Katana but can be changed at any time from the Team page. Read more about user permissions.
