-
Choose Select specific Business IDs to which you want to grant access to determine the specific Business IDs that you want Adverity to access. Adverity will not automatically have access to Business IDs created in the future. You will need to grant Adverity access to any Business IDs created in the future.

This is important to consider if you do not want all Adverity users with permission to edit the to be able to see the details of the Business IDs. For more information about user permissions, see Managing user permissions.
