You can run the Permissions Purging Utility to remove unused permissions from the User Permissions report.

If there are other permissions you cannot find, you can go to the module that the user permissions report mentions, click on a tab in the module and click F10 button to see what field is being used.
Starting in FIMS 14.72, when security permissions are set in any module with context-sensitive menus, such as under File Maintenance or Reports, those same access permissions apply to all modules. If a user does not have permission rights in one module, those same rights apply across other module
