How do I set up the security on SAS2000?
The level of access that different people at the school have to the information stored in the software can be restricted in SAS2000. By setting up the security you can decide who will have access to certain areas of SAS2000 and who will not. As part of setting up the security everyone who logs into SAS2000 will need to be issued with a login name and password.
For example:
You may want to allow certain members of staff to print off the student reports but prevent them from accessing the financial reports. Certain staff may need access to update information on some forms but not on others.
You can allow for both scenarios by setting up the security in SAS2000.
The steps to setting up security are:
 |
Work out the number of access levels you require. To do this look at the jobs of the staff that will have access to SAS2000 and work out the level of access each job requires.
If you have 5 people who require the same level of access then instead of setting an access level up for each of the 5 you would set up one access group and link the 5 people to it.
|
|
Enter the access levels into SAS2000 by going to MAINTENANCE>ACCESS LEVELS
|
You now need to set the appropriate security for each access level.
|
Go to MAINTENANCE>SETUP>GENERAL and click on the SECURITY button
|
|
Make sure SECURITY ON is selected
|
|
Work through each of the access groups, assigning them access to the different areas of SAS2000 as required
|
|
Set up a login and password for each person that is using SAS2000
|
|
Go to MAINTENANCE>USER CONTROL and link their login to the appropriate access level

This website was featured in The Age newspaper and, as we thought it was such a great idea, we wanted to let you all know about it here!
Book Crossing was established by Ron Hornbaker who was inspired by sites such as Where's George? (a site that tracks US currency according to serial number) and PhotoTag.org (a site that releases disposable cameras, displays pictures taken with them and tracks their progress).
The concept is simple and fun. Basically all you need to do to participate is read a good book, register the book and your comments about it on the website and then release it! When you register your book you will be given a unique BCID code to write in it before you release it. This code is used to track your book. You can release the book by giving it to a friend, donating it to charity or simply leaving it in a public place such as a café or on a park bench for someone else to find. Each time someone finds your book and posts their comments on the website you will receive an email so that you can track how many people have read your book and how far it has travelled.
The site claims that many authors and publishers support Book Crossing as a lot of visitors to the website purchase books based on the reviews they have read there. The site is about promoting books and good karma rather than saving people money!
So if you would like to get that warm fuzzy feeling that comes from sharing something with others why not release a book today and see where it goes...
