 This tab contains permissions that only affect Open mSupply users. Currently Open mSupply must connect to an existing mSupply server, which takes care of the authentication and synchronisation. Soon, when we've re-written the central synchronisation server in Open mSupply, there will be no need for this tab. Until then, permissions that only apply to users of Open mSupply will appear on this tab. This tab contains permissions that only affect Open mSupply users.

 +**Sync user across all login stores:** This checkbox is only displayed if the currently logged in user is designated as a "special user" and they are logged into the primary server in a synchronisation system (the server where the system data iis edited). If this is checkbox is checked, when the **OK** button is clicked the user's details are synchronised with all the stores they are allowed ot login to. In this way, an administrator in a synchronisation system is able to edit user permissions and settings and have them automatically synchronised to all relevant sites.
