I don't have any LDAP server yet.

I'm a one person company just now. Soon I'll be using a fab shop separate from the house though, so multi location is important for me. I'll be setting up some tasks with separation of duties accounts and doing them myself and all from one location for a while first...:-) I've read the manual as far as understanding there are approvals needing to be done by another in one mode. That's probably what you are suggesting -- to set up with approvals required from the start. What user roles make sense to set up? You always want chief/CEO/owner as a role, and at least one person who can do bookkeeping and needs approvals to post invoices purchase orders, write checks. How about web sales or POS bookkeeping? Does that role have different permissions than generic bookkeeping? How about inventory counting, shipping? Is there a special bookkeeping role with limited permissions you like to create for that set of tasks?
