Database Permissions

You are able to define the user rights with Administration Tool by defining the database permissions for the individual users and user groups


Defining Database permissions:

Users which have the Manage Users permission are allowed to change their own database level permissions. To manage the database level permissions of the user groups, the user needs to have the Manage User Groups permission.

The CustomTools database has always one administrator user called Admin. The Admin user cannot be removed from the database and its user rights could not be modified. The Admin user has the full permissions into the database and all of the profiles in the database.


  1. Run CustomTools Administration Tool.

  2. Login to the CustomTools database

  3. Right-click the database name and select Permissions. The Database Rights dialog box appears
