You may find permission templates a more efficient way of configuring security permissions for entities.
Permissions templates enable you to save sets of configured permissions and apply them to entities.
You can also use permissions already configured for an entity to create a permission template. For
information about working with permission templates, see “Working with permission
templates” on page 354.
