Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://docs.navigaglobal.com/circulation-setup-manual/system/security-menu/security-id.md). # Security ID Once user groups are set up, the groups must be assigned to at least one (but possibly more) security ID. Certain menu items and transactions can then be limited to a certain security ID. Continuing with the example started in Group (see [User Profile - CR](/circulation-setup-manual/system/security-menu/user-profile-cr.md)), suppose you have determined the functions that require restriction and have set up user profiles and groups accordingly. You might then set up a security ID called “Dispatch” for all users that should have access only to that function, and so on. Notice that users in “SysAdm” (system administrators) have unrestricted access.
