Role-Based Security and User PermissionsVista-Suite Enterprise elevates user security with unmatched granularity across every action and module. Admins can create as many roles as needed to match actual job functions without over-authorizing or creative workarounds. Permissions range from basic view-only access to highly sensitive functions such as cost adjustments, transaction data changes, or record deletion. Each user gets what they need, and nothing they don’t, resulting in a more secure and manageable system that’s tailored to real aviation business needs.
Exchange transactions can be complicated, but they shouldn't slow you down. With Vista-Suite Enterprise, you can manage multiple parts, override costs as needed, and adapt to exceptions without resorting to workarounds. Whether it is one unit or many, standard or unusual, Vista-Suite Enterprise helps you keep control, stay accurate, and move faster.
