Feature Areas
Feature areas directly correlate to the feature areas in your navigation bar.
For example, Financial Edge NXT displays General Ledger, Statistical units in the navigation bar.
For Blackbaud Merchant Services, feature areas exist for each of the following: the Blackbaud Merchant Services Web Portal, Blackbaud MobilePay Terminal, and the Payments API.
To learn about feature areas, roles, and how a user's level of access is determined, see Role-based Security Overview.
View feature areas
Feature areas appear on the Roles page and depend on your organization's Blackbaud solutions. Admins can't add, edit, or remove feature areas.
If you have multiple Blackbaud solutions, expand a solution to view its feature areas.
Manage user access to feature areas
When admins add or edit users, feature areas appear under Security.
-
If your organization only has one Blackbaud solution, all feature areas appear. To provide access to a feature area, select its checkbox.
-
If your organization has multiple Blackbaud solutions, feature areas appear under their respective Blackbaud solutions. To provide access to a feature area, select a solution and then select the feature area's checkbox. This enables access to that feature area in that solution, but not to other Blackbaud solutions or other feature areas.
-
Under Blackbaud account management roles, feature areas for organizational admin tasks appear. To provide access to a feature area, select its checkbox.
There is no limit to the number of areas a user can access.
