An Authorizer item given you access to USoft Authorizer.

USoft Authorizer allows you to grant access rights to users of USoft Developer Series products or a USoft application. By assigning users to a user group, and by specifying the collective rights of these groups, you can specify who is entitled to do what in the production and development environments.

For more information on USoft Authorizer, and for details of how to use it once it is installed on your system, refer to the USoft Authorizer Guide.

Typically, each USoft Binder file has exactly 1 Authorizer item at all times.

You can create USoft Authorizer tables from an Authorizer item in USoft Binder by right-clicking on the item and choosing Create Tables from the context menu. The Create Tables dialog will appear.
