Troubleshooting access
- If Inventory Management is not accessible or redirects on entry, the user is missing the
inventory managementpermission. - If only the My inventory request tab is visible, the user has
inventory managementbut lackssee allandadministration. - If the Inventory request tab is missing but operational tabs are visible, the user has
administrationbut notsee all— both can be assigned independently. - If the Inventory Entry, Inventory Catalog, Movements, and Pending items tabs are all missing, the user needs the
administrationpermission. - If the Reject button does not appear inside the Review modal on a
PENDrequest, the user lacks theadministrationpermission. - Products is accessible to all authenticated users — no permission assignment is needed.
- To request access, contact your supervisor or system administrator.
