The Permissions section is where you can edit and view X Dispatch permission sets, which are used for most sections within X Dispatch. For example, if you have a CSR that needs access to Order Entry and Dispatch functionality, but you don’t want them to have access to accounting or driver settlements, you can deselect those specific permissions on the CSR's permission set. 

...

The baseline database comes with 4 templates: Accountant Template, CSR Template, Dispatcher Template, and Manager Template. You can create new templates by following the How to Add a New Permission Set or Template steps below.

Tip
titleQuick Tip

When creating new templates, name the template permissions for the position in your company and add "Template" to the end for the Permissions for field. For example "Route Dispatch Template".

Cloud customers should add their four-digit customer ID to the end. For example "Route Dispatch Template-9999".
