Assigning user verification to tasks

Once a user has logged on to Dentrix Enterprise, the user may perform all tasks to which they have rights. There can be certain situations for which additional protection is desired. In these cases, the security options can be flagged to "Verify User Before Access." With this security flag enabled for a task, users will be prompted to re-enter a user name and password when attempting to perform that task.

Notes:

Each clinic in your organization can have its own set of user verification settings.

Assigning user verification requires the "Setup Practice For Passwords" security right.

To assign user verification

In Office Manager, on the Maintenance menu, point to Practice Setup > Security Setup, and then click Verify User Before Access.

The Verify Before Access Setup dialog box appears.

In the Security Options list, select tasks.

Click the * button next to Verify User Before Access.

The selected tasks are flagged and moved to the bottom of the list. An asterisk (*) appears next to a security option that it is flagged to require re-entry of a password every time users attempt to perform that task.

Tip: Consider how frequently the security option is used before assigning the "Verify Users Before Access" flag. This flag will always prompt users to enter their passwords before they can continue working-a lot of interruptions might not be worth the added security.

Click OK.
