When a user creates a new database, that user is assigned only one permission set automatically: the SUPER permission set. As you create and define permission sets in a new database and companies, remember to always assign the BASIC permission set, which grants users access to required system tables and other fundamental tables, to all users.

The BASIC permission set primarily functions as a prerequisite to open the client and show all pages.

The BASIC permission set and permissions, as well as other permission sets, are provided in an XML file, examples of which are included with the CRONUS International Ltd. demonstration database. If you want to extend them with new permission sets or permissions, you can modify them.

Another prerequisite permission set is the FOUNDATION permission set.If you want to use the UI Elements Removal feature to automatically remove UI elements according to user permissions, it is recommended that you use the FOUNDATION permission set together with the relevant application permission sets. For more information, see Removing Elements from the User Interface According to Permissions.
