Insufficient rights to access object

You can get an error about insufficient rights when trying to access a form or feature in MYOB Acumatica. Most of the time this error doesn't mean there's a problem with your site, but that your user role doesn't have access to that form or feature.

A site administrator can check your user role and confirm what you do and do not have access to.

Checking a user's access rights

  1. Sign in as an administrator.
  2. Go to the Users form (SM201010), note down which roles the user has.
  3. Go to the Access Rights by Screen form (SM201020).
  4. Locate the form or feature and the relevant section where the insufficient rights error occurs. The screen may be in the hidden folder.

  5. Verify if the user's roles have access to the form or feature by checking the Access Rights column. For details about what the different access rights mean, see User Roles: Restriction Level Options.

"You have insufficient rights to access object (CREmailActivityMaint)"

If this specific version of the error occurs when emailing, it means there's an issue with the role assigned to the user.

To resolve the issue, on the Access Rights By Role screen, within the hidden folder, you need to set the appropriate access rights to the row with the description Email Activity.

  1. Go to the menu path Configuration > User Security > Manage > Access Rights By Role.

  2. Select the role and go to the first hidden menu path in the left hand side of the screen.

  3. Filter on the column description in the right hand side and filter on column header contains Email.

  4. Once filtered, set the access rights to delete for the description which equals Email Activity.
    Once this has been set, then the end user will not get the message about insufficient rights again.
