## 🔒 Security & Permissions

### User-Based Access Control
```php
// User permission checks
$userData = $myUserRecord->load($_SESSION['userid']);
if ($userData->viewbills == 0) {
    // Restrict to user's own transactions
}
if ($userData->viewclients == 0) {
    // Restrict to user's own customers
}
```

### Store-Level Security
```php
// Store access restrictions
$userStores = explode(',', $_SESSION['storeids']);
// Filter data by accessible stores
```

### Financial Data Protection
- Profit visibility based on user group
- Cost price restrictions
- Sensitive financial data masking
- Audit trail for financial queries

---

## 📊 Performance Considerations

### Dashboard Optimization
1. **Caching Strategy**: Dashboard metrics cached for 5-15 minutes
2. **Lazy Loading**: Load charts and heavy analytics on demand
3. **Query Optimization**: Indexed date range queries
4. **Data Aggregation**: Pre-calculated summary tables

### Database Performance
```php
// Optimized query patterns
$query = "SELECT SUM(sellbilltotalbill) as total_sales 
          FROM sellbill 
          WHERE sellbilldate >= ? AND sellbilldate <= ?
          AND conditions = 0";
```

### Memory Management
- Pagination for large result sets
- Stream processing for reports
- Resource cleanup after operations
- Connection pooling for analytics

---

## 🐛 Common Issues & Troubleshooting

### 1. **Dashboard Loading Slowly**
**Issue**: Dashboard takes 10+ seconds to load  
**Cause**: Heavy analytics queries without optimization

**Debug**:
```php
// Check query performance
$start = microtime(true);
$result = $dao->complexAnalyticsQuery();
$time = microtime(true) - $start;
echo "Query time: {$time} seconds";
```

**Fix**:
```sql
-- Add indexes for date range queries
CREATE INDEX idx_sellbill_date ON sellbill(sellbilldate);
CREATE INDEX idx_buybill_date ON buybill(buybilldate);
```

### 2. **Incorrect Financial Calculations**
**Issue**: KPI numbers don't match detailed reports  
**Cause**: Different query conditions or date handling

**Debug**:
```php
// Verify query conditions
echo "Sales Query: " . $salesQuery;
echo "Profit Query: " . $profitQuery;

// Check date format consistency
echo "Date format: " . date('Y-m-d', strtotime($inputDate));
```

### 3. **Permission Errors**
**Issue**: Users see data they shouldn't access  
**Cause**: Missing permission checks or incorrect filtering

**Fix**:
```php
// Always check user permissions
if (!hasPermission('view_financial_data')) {
    throw new Exception('Access denied');
}

// Apply store filters
$storeFilter = getUserStoreFilter($_SESSION['userid']);
$query .= " AND storeid IN ({$storeFilter})";
```

### 4. **Memory Issues with Large Datasets**
**Issue**: Script timeout or memory exhaustion  
**Cause**: Loading too much data at once

**Fix**:
```php
// Use pagination and limits
$limit = 1000;
$offset = 0;
while (true) {
    $batch = getDataBatch($offset, $limit);
    if (empty($batch)) break;
    processBatch($batch);
    $offset += $limit;
    unset($batch); // Free memory
}
```

```

### Test Case 3: Multi-User Scenarios
```
1. Test concurrent dashboard access
2. Verify user-specific data filtering
3. Check permission enforcement
4. Test store access restrictions
```

### Test Case 4: Data Integrity
```
1. Create backdated transactions
2. Check historical KPI accuracy
