have users delete entire trades, bulk deals, or orders). | |
Save Confirmation | Presents a message to

the main view menu after saving delivery details. If this right is not given,
then the user will remain in either the pay or receive screen after having saved
delivery details. | | View |

enter and save trades and never see delivery details. This may be ideal for some

that allows "Uncomplete." These rights are generally assigned or removed in tandem.

button does not appear after delivery details insertion. The appearance of the
Complete button provides the customer with dual authorization
capability.

authorized user clicks Complete to finalize delivery
details. This is essentially an "undo" feature.
