Review current user access and available activity history
BayEngine shows a user's current status, roles, and effective permissions. Repair-order Activity records important work on a visit, but BayEngine does not currently provide a complete login or permission-change history.

Understand what the permission screen shows
- The selected actions are the user's current effective access for the chosen scope.
- Role labels identify permissions supplied by an assigned role.
- Added and Removed labels identify individual exceptions.
- Organization-wide access must be reviewed from the organization scope.
- The screen does not show when a permission was changed or what access looked like previously.

- Ask what page or action the person expected to use and when the issue happened.
- Review the affected repair order's Activity when the question concerns a visit.
- Email hi@bayengine.com with the user, shop, affected page, approximate time, and a screenshot when the available information does not answer the question.
