Hello Gents,

Back to this issue. I started looking for information regarding security and I got to know that assets are coming under accounting and based on - correct me please if I'm wrong - 'base-permission' for this the user needs to have OFBTOOLS,ACCOUNTING security groups to be allowed to access. I can't find the same in the data populated with my new Ofbiz installation, I found other threads talking about having such 'static data' scattered between 'demo' and 'seed' data so I reloaded the same using './gradlew "ofbiz --load-data readers=seed,seed-initial,ext,demo"' but nothing changed.

Would you please shed some light ob this?

Regards,

Emad.

Any idea why is this?
