 ====== How to Configure a Custom Level ======
-===== Before versions before 2.3 =====
+The custom level feature allows you to give specified privileges to administrators in specific menus.
-Before the release of BioStar 2.3, there were only 4 operator levels for users. There functions were limited to their roles as shown below: \\
-  - 	Administrator : full privileges over all operations
+===== BioStar version 2.6 and above =====
-  - 	User Operator : only full privileges to edit users
+From BioStar 2.6.3, the Admin Item Setting is changed so that a custom level can be assigned for a specific User Group, Device Group, Door Group, and Access Group. Also Monitoring menu is now allowing the administrator to assign "Read" rights. \\
-  - 	Monitoring Operator : only full privileges over the monitoring page
-  - 	Mobile User : only privilege to read all menus.
+. Go to the **Settings** > **ACCOUNT**. \\
+{{:en:biostar2_custom_level_1.png?nolink&800|}} \\
+. Create new Custom Level. At this point, you can configure the item settings and menu settings. \\
+{{:en:custom_level_-_2.6.3.png?nolink&1000|}} \\
+**Admin Item Settings** includes User Group, Device Group, Door Group, and Access Group(including Elevator Group).
+Each item can be configured for each group or for all groups. \\
+**Admin Menu Settings** consists of Dashboard, User, Device, Door, Elevator, Zone, Access Control, Monitoring, Time and Attendance, Setting, and Video categories. \\
+For each menu you can set "Edit" and "Read" privileges.
+When checking "Edit" it will automatically check "Read."
+Depending on such privilege settings, "Add Button" column value will be changed (N/A, Disabled, or Enabled)\\
+**Dashboard** only allows "Read" privilege and its "Add Button" will show "N/A" status. \\
+When the "Read" is checked the dashboard will be shown when you log in to BioStar 2. \\
+Depending on Admin Item Settings, dashboard use status is not supported but is shown by the number of use status according to Admin Menu Settings.
+**User** menu sets who can see the user menu depending on the privilege that is set here. The privilege to this menu is affected by User Group, Access Group, and Device Group.
+  * User Group: Add/Edit privilege limit on a menu
+  * Access Group: Display/Select privilege limit on a user specific page
+  * Device Group: Device display privilege limit when enrolling fingerprint/face/card for a user
+**Device** menu dictates display privilege of Device menu depending on its "Edit/Read" setting.
+Device menu privilege is affected by User Group, Device Group of Admin Item Settings. User Group influences administrator Display/Add/Edit privilege limit of a device specific page. For an administrator who does not have privilege to a device is set, an administrator who does not have privilege is displayed when entering a device specific page, and this can be deleted. \\
+Device Group limits display of a device on a menu, and limits device Add/Edit privilege.
+You can also see now that the Monitoring Admin Menu Setting allows "Read" assignment.\\
+<callout type="tip" icon="true">
+  * The expansion of Admin Item Settings to universal setting of the Custom Level will influence the Admin Menu Settings.
+  * The Account button can only be visible to the Administrator.
+  * If you are upgrading from previous versions to BioStar 2.6.3, you need to perform migration on the Custom Level
+  * The Administrator will receive alert regarding Custom Level activities

+Up to BioStar 2.6.2, Admin Item Settings were only limited to Monitoring section as in the screenshot below.\\

+===== BioStar version 2.4 and above =====
+In BioStar version 2.4, the custom level was further expanded to allow custom levels that controls specific users, devices, doors, and access groups. \\
+{{:en:2xtraining_custom_admin_007_.png?nolink&800|}} \\
+However, be aware that the custom items only apply to its specific menu. \\
+This means that even if you apply a specific user in the **User** menu item and specific devices in the **Device** menu item, the custom operator will see //all// logs of devices and users in the **Monitoring** menu because the settings do not apply other menus.
+<callout type="warning" icon="true">
+**Known Issue** \\
+You can only add new custom levels with the default administrator (ID 1) account in BioStar 2.4. \\
