Abstract
Computer software application which defines “action items” in order to allow subscriber control of user access to various functionality or features of the application on a user-by-user basis. “Action items” may correspond to many various types of functionality relating to the user interface, such as data display, data output and data transfer, rather than to database access or database modification privileges. In this way a subscriber can give its users access to more or fewer user interface features, depending upon individual user needs and abilities, on an individualized basis.
