What are Global permissions in NetSuite?

Global permissions in NetSuite are designed to apply uniformly across all user roles within the organization. This means that they are not limited to specific roles or custom settings. Instead, global permissions set overarching access rights that ensure consistent security and user access across various departments and functions within the system.

By establishing these permissions as global, an organization can streamline the management of user access and maintain a standardized security framework, which is crucial for compliance and operational efficiency. This type of permission structure facilitates ease of administration, as administrators do not need to configure these permissions on a role-by-role basis but can apply them globally to manage access to critical features, data, and functionalities.
