Description

I find it confusing, that "admin" has access to SYSTEM module while system maintainer has additional access to ADMIN TOOLS (contrary to the admin).

Solution might be to switch the names for ADMIN TOOLS and SYSTEM module.

admin user

  • is called admin in db: be_users.admin
  • is called admin in BE users form
  • has additional access to SYSTEM module (but not to ADMIN TOOLS)

system maintainer

  • has additional access to "ADMIN TOOLS"
