Add privilidge for Managers to prevent auto-renew being enabled for enquiries

We have to submit all enquiries through the pelican corp API so there is a charge associated with each enquiry we lodge from SmarterWX Locate. We found that its too easy for users to turn on the auto-renew function for enquiries. This has resulted in excessive charges against the Pelican Corp API. We would like Managers or Organisation administrators to be able to prevent users from turning on the autorenew function. We would like users to be able to contact their Team manager first who will then enable autorenew on certain enquiries if required.

    Hi Nick, thanks for sharing your enhancement idea. Currently there are three user roles available in SmarterWX Locate, each with a fixed set of privileges. What you're asking for is "User defined roles and privileges" where you can either create new roles that have different privileges, or to manage privileges on a per user basis (separate from user role). This requires further thought and is something we can consider for the future. I'm interested to know what other privileges Admins and Managers would like to manage in this way? For example, is access to Create Enquiry something you'd like to grant to some users, but not to others? Please share any additional thoughts you have - thanks.
